Pros

The people you work with. The support groups work well together and overall have a good time getting the job done.

Cons

The benefits and compensation has been cut. Not sure that they are much better than many start-up company's now. No real pension anymore, just a cash balance and 401K plan. Post Retirement medical is gone for anyone under 40. Unless you are a Senior VP you don't really participate when the company has a good year. You do participate when the company has a bad year. Many of the top guys in the business groups treat the support groups like trash.

Pros

Solid benefits package, manageable workload. Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.

Cons

The company undergoes frequent restructuring, and technical leadership often lacks the depth needed to guide modern engineering decisions. The culture can feel rooted in an older, more traditional mindset, and promising initiatives frequently get stuck in POC hell rather than reaching production. Career progression is also very manager-dependent; the wrong reporting relationship can significantly stall your growth. Overall technical bar is low — if you're trying to sharpen your skills, this environment may hold you back rather than push you forward.
