Pros

Great pay and benefits. Flexibility and autonomy.

Cons

There has been a lot of change over the last 5-8 years and the entire culture has really changed. Much more like big Pharma than it had been. Also, the tolerance by HR for the behavior of several managers is really unacceptable! Several that I know have an HR file full of complaints with zero done about it. Not a safe place if you are working for these individuals.

Pros

Depending on your department, but my experience has been that most employees here are understanding of your personal life issues and are willing to work with you however they can. The medical coverage is awesome and benefits overall are really supportive.

Cons

They aim to keep pay “competitive” but they’re still on the lower end of what other companies will pay you.
