Pros

The money in good and the benefits for the family are good too. the secure job is also a plus

fear for your job. always having lower level supervisors lie to make them look good. The company allowing their lower managers fire people for non rule violations but for personal reasons.. this is a bad company... harsh tatics

Pros

Depending on the team you are in, it can be very flexible, and you’ll be working with nice people.

Cons

HR needs to step in more, they are supposed to set a precedent yet it seems like the higher ups in different departments actually set the expectations. Which can be toxic, and some managers clearly don’t know how to manage teams. HR seems to be a nice and fun department, but the rest of the company has lackluster reviews. Also, stop advertising a total rewards package to new hires when you need to work over fiver years to get some benefits and due to the merger they won’t actually get that package. Just raise your base salaries.
