Pros

-Great gym on site -Cafeteria on site-unfortunately it's a Jack in the Box -Alternate work schedule

Cons

-Not part of the "in-crowd" -Ideas not taken into consideration -No communication from manamgement -Management trying to run the department without knowledge of subject -Employee's are just a number to executives -Forcing out employee's with tenure, either by position elimination or early retirement -People aren't helping each other anymore. Afraid they may be the next person on the chopping block. If you are part of the 'In-crowd" you don't have to worry about this.

Pros

You get every other Friday off.

Cons

The corporate culture is kind of scary. Multiple times I was told to "just drink the cool aide" (direct quote) when referring to getting on board with changes in the Corporate Values.

Pros

People - peers really work well together. Used to be a very good company to work for. Compensation was good. Recognition programs used to be very good.

Cons

Business model has changed and appears that anyone connected to the old culture is not wanted any longer. Face of workers changing to younger than 50. Marketing does not listen to field. People are judged by what they do "at the moment", not the good work they have done or in the downsizing of the company, doing the work of 2-3 others. Management doesn't want you to think anymore, they want you just to obey the orders.
