Pros

Large company Decent wages and benefits

Cons

Management's way of thinking and lack of employees being a priority are the downfall of this company. They try to claim to be leaders of the industry, but still have shallow vision when it comes to their employees. We're just a replaceable number.

Pros

Good benefits, clean corporate work atmosphere.

Cons

BAD work/life balance, poor/weak office culture & managers, employees NOT encouraged to think outside the box, some employees very overworked, while others pass the buck to avoid work. Managers are blind to this. Managers hold employees back, and do not promote, keeping their own cost centers down, thereby garnering larger bonuses for themselves. Many employees not replaced, once they leave, creating much more work for those who stay. Most employees I know are looking for opportunities to leave the company.
