Pros

Large, stable and well known company in the segment.

Cons

Extremely poor executive leadership has forced very high employee turnover due to treating their employees like cattle, ironically they know the cattle business quite well. Forcing employees into experimental domains (under the threat of termination), and removing their privacy rights has resulted in high turnover in key areas of tenured professionals. They have now reversed their directive but the damage has been done, and trust of executive leadership is ruined. Avoid unless you have no other option.

Pros

HQ building is pretty cool and you can get some neat tours of company facilities. Work life balance is generally pretty good.

Cons

The company just has no idea what its doing regarding IT. Most management has been there 25+ years and still wants to operate like its the 90s. Head of IT is an accountant and the department is treated like a necessary evil and employees are told they provide no tangible value. Making any kind of impact is actively discourage and 'stay in your lane' is a core tenet. If you want to just show up, grind, and go home, this is the place for you.
