Pros

Decent pay and benefits although employee share of benefits is growing. Good job security (at least in my area). Good first and second line management team.

Cons

Upper level division management including executives full of people with huge egos who seem to enjoy belittling others. Division president rides in chauffer driven Escalade while talking about "draconian" cost cutting.

Pros

Competitive pay + benefits 9/80 Work schedule (9 hours a day, every other Friday off) 401K contribution matching Vacation time rolls over (but capped) Tuition reimbursement, however I have issues (see cons below) Job security (no outsourcing) Great work/life balance. Employees are encouraged to take their vacation time.

Cons

Promotion / Advancement heavily biased towards seniority vs merit-based. Political infighting between groups. Company maintains dead weight employees and shuffles them around instead of laying them off. Bureaucracy and red tape create a slow-moving work environment. Tuition reimbursement only towards a degree program. Why no option to take 1 or 2 classes for professional enrichment?
