Pros

Still get our vacation time, most other benefits keep getting trimmed down or eliminated all together. Good people at lower levels

Cons

Company has been trimming down last few years. Second round of layoffs going on. Company keeps people in dark. Expect things to keep getting worse before they get better.

Pros

Always busy with challenging work.

Cons

Office politics slows things down, seems like some of the work is about checking a box and not about really creating value or improved processes.
