Pros

The work is fast paced and interesting. The pay is competitive, and the offered benefits are really good.

Cons

Management is several departments are very poor. This company often promotes based on seniority, not by any measurable leadership abilities. For example:My manager is really bad at all things related to leadership, but really knows how to do the individual jobs of his team.

Pros

Decent pay. Stock options. Good co-workers. Diverse workforce.

Cons

Constant layoffs. They will lay off thousands of employees then make huge billion dollar+ accusations. IT department is a toxic cesspool. CIO manages based on "Vibes" perception, and impressions. He does not provide clear direction but then gets upset if you do not read his mind. A total rule by fear environment. They constantly are threatening to let you go if you don't fall in line. They fire anyone who disagrees with them or shows any backbone or stands up for themselves. So Senior IT management is full of "Yes men" afraid to stick their necks out. Most regular employees just keep their heads down. AVOID THE IT DEPARTMENT AT ALL COSTS.
