Pros

Relatively good pay and nice fringe benefits including a large fitness center and park, company resort, store, summer hours, and holiday shutdown.

Cons

"Transformation". That is the word they used to describe their efforts to "improve sustainability". What that really meant was new leadership with the stomach to make deep cuts and outsource everything possible to save a buck instead of maintaining quality services. The work from those removed or leaving on their own trickles downhill to those that remain. Work/life balance is out the window along with morale. Don't be surprised when the people doing the cutting update their resumes saying they saved the company $(insert number here) then move on to another company to do the same thing. If you want to enjoy the fringe benefits for a while and pad your resume then knock yourself out, but beware of what you are walking into.

Pros

Great working environment, strong teams

Cons

Very slow promotions and too focused on managing up. This is unfortunate because this is such a great company, but the company will continue to lose people if they don't promote top talent.
