Pros

Pay is above average for the area, however management has always had problems with middle managers staying the course and managing the staff correctly. I've had 7 middle managers in the 5 yrs that I have been here.

Cons

Challenges of working here is the travel time required. It's advertised as a percentage in the job req but it's pretty much on demand. If there is a need, then you mudt go. To much time away from family for business travel made it hard to continue.

Pros

Very good work community. Company getting better at understanding work/life balance. Challenging work.

Cons

Performance management system needs improvement. It doesn't contain enough checks and balances for contested reviews. Matrix organization with a low overhead budget means that many functional managers do not have enough time to know what their employees do on a day-to-day basis, but they are the ones writing the annual reviews. Very little oversight of performance at the functional management level and above.
