Pros

Benefits are great. The work day ends by 5pm. There is limited work with China. Easy going culture if you avoid the pockets of political inspired leadership. Consistant paycheck and a good place to ride out the recession.

Cons

Very introspective. Not open to outside ideas or benchmarking. Verbal abuse is condoned and/or ignored. HR provides no support in a male driven culture. HR refused to address high rate of turn-over. HR is basically a Joke. Inflexible work mentality, no flex time, limited work from home. Unwilling to modify antiquated vacation policy. No incentive pay until 2nd year and it is not linked to performance. Yearly bonus is not linked to performance.

Pros

Great with previous leadership. But then...

Cons

New leadership is not as dedicated to employees as previous (although bonuses have been better). New middle management there is a lot of nepotism. Once a stable company, layoffs have been a common occurrence since COVID.
