Pros

I loved working there but I ended up being part of the 4% reduction-in-force.

Cons

I've gotten my severance (after 2 and 1/2 pay periods of waiting) and am still waiting on my personal items from the office. I haven't heard a word back from the P&C after reaching out. Feeling forgotten and I'm ready to move-on. Let me move-on.

Pros

There is freedom to approach each project as you see fit. Strong support from senior leadership.

Cons

When several programs peak at the same time the hours start to creep up pretty quickly.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
