Pros

New-ish office building with a good cafeteria.Competitive pay and benefits. People are, in general, nice enough to work with.

Cons

Westinghouse is a dysfunctional and demoralizing place to work. On a good day, I can put on my headphones, get some real work done, and almost (almost) ignore the stench around me. Yet I still go home stressed out and disgusted. Those are the good days. There are very few good days. The weight of horribly broken processes and worthless procedures is a millstone around the neck of anyone that wants to do the right thing and get work done they can be proud of. Project managers (manglers?) seem to out-number engineers.
