Pros

Steady and secure employment. Most of the tools and budget to do your job are provided.

Cons

Employees who consistently perform at a high level are not rewarded. Salary increases are not based on performance. Employees then become complacent and have no drive to perform better work. Managers are not trained to be managers. It is so hierarchial, it feels like you are working in the culture of 30 years ago. If you are at a lower or non-managerial level, your voice will not be heard.

Pros

Good benefits. Hard to get fired. Opportunities to learn if so inclined. Some great lower level people who make the place go. Find a manager and play the political game. You won’t have to work. Some employees have light workloads and can get away with not doing much

Cons

Upper management is disingenuous. HR takes the side of management in all matters. Political environment with cliques. Dysfunctional practices and an inability to hear feedback. Self defeating practices. They increased the amount of upper management by maybe 50% during Highleys tenure while cutting down on employees and benefits to cut rates which did not happen. No pension for new hires. Have lost numerous members due to exits and more have announced. They plan to supplement loss of members to serve data centers. Overall not a good recipe for success
