Pros

Smart kind intelligent colleagues. Work life balance is good and all the benefits are good too! If you are a long and steady hauler, this is a good place to be. If you are looking for a promotion in less then 5 years, not so great.

Cons

Very hard to get promoted. Over 21 years only have 3 grade changes. You really have to advocate for yourself and take zigzag opportunities, and or secondments to gain more experience and then go and interview and hope you get the higher level grade role.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Despite the failures of leadership, bonus payouts are excellent. Smart people who still care.

Cons

Executive leadership is completely out of touch and the company is directionless. Every year there are multiple rounds of layoffs, aging infrastructure gets worse every year, morale is low and the joke is that people hang on to “get a package”. Opportunities for advancement are very few and far between.
