Pros

Smart, talented, friendly coworkers and managers.

Cons

Employee retention is pretty bad, the return to work policy was arbitrary and ham-fisted, and they cut benefits last year.

Pros

Some interesting work. Retirement matching OK for now.

Cons

Retirement funds reduced. Vacation reduced. Medical benefits have deteriorated every year since I got here. CEO is arrogant and apparently in the thrall of second rate management consultants. Once great, respected Engineering company.
