Pros

The people. There are some really good people in the organization. That are the reason that we come to work every day and keep making the effort while we wait for market conditions to improve.

Cons

As others have said, directionless. Cost cutting is not a strategy. After so many rounds of cost cutting and "right sizings" moral is in the pits and everyone is pretty much on edge all the time waiting for the axe to fall on them. We are no longer playing to win, we are just playing to delay losing for as long as possible.

Pros

Compensation is great People are awesome Lots of perks like educational reimbursement and volunteer work Lots of focus on safety, very few incidents HSA and company match benefits Upper management is wonderful and engaging

Cons

Work/Life Balance gets a one star rating Vehemently against remote and hybrid work. Says that working in the office is vital to creating relationships even though we all stay in our cubicles and all of the meetings are on Teams Middle management seems checked out Lots of peer pressure to work in office even when sick. Nobody is asked to go home if they come in hacking up a lung. Very few feel like they have the freedom and ability to take advantage of their vacation time. Over working yourself is seen as a value here, but isn't recognized as going above and beyond. It's an expectation. Seasonal whiplash - mandatory OT in the summer months, followed by hours possibly getting cut back in the winter months
