Pros

Some colleagues are great people, lots to learn from them, most people are smart and qualified to do jobs, if not manage others Generally, non-comp benefits are competitive and fair

Cons

Turnover is very, very high Low morale across company Many people stay who want to leave because of poor job market Widespread dissatisfaction with management, lack of fairness Compensation transparency/fairness is nonexistent, two people with same job/experience/title can be paid $50k or more apart People are leaving in high numbers, leaving those who stay to juggle too much Managers are not held to high performance standards
