      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They work hard to keep employees happy. 9/80 work schedule (every other Friday off), recreation facilities (gyms, pickleball court, baseball diamond), cafeteria's in most buildings, regular townhall meetings with Senior Leadership with unfiltered Q&As, Free Electric Vehicle charging stations, slow to layoff in down years (aka covid), they try to promote from within, good benefits, pension, tuition reimbursement, the pay is fair, plenty of training opportunities.

      Cons

      Run largely by older white men, they were one of the last companies to allow telework and they are slowly moving back towards having people in office full time again, Sometimes they are slow to hire because they are also slow to cut when there's less work. This can mean heavier work loads (but not always), processes seem to keep changing all the time. Lots of bureaucracy and red tape can suck up too much time taking away from value added work
