Pros

Management does not fire anyone unless you really do something big they can't ignore and the corporate office gets involved.

Cons

It used to be a good company to work for before Koch Industries. It is long hours, no raises in years and too many top managers.

Pros

Diverse workforce; lack of micro-management; savings on local arts, entertainment, sporting events; opportunities to community service; high profile company

Cons

The buck doesn't seem to stop anywhere - responsibilities fall in too many different silos; systems are not nearly as good as might be expected; compensation (incl raises, bonuses) does not meet expectations for employees at a certain level (I refer to this as the "haves" and "have nots") - too much lip service

Pros

The pay is decent, there are alot of nice people to work with, and potential for advancement or job-changing after a while

Cons

The interview and job offer were extremely misleading and deceiving. The offer and insight they provided me before accepting the position has only turned out to be about 20% true.
