Pros

Great corporate office location, with free parking at the mall. You get paid on time every pay period. As your tenure increases, you are better suited to be a candidate to travel back in time to the 1950s.

Cons

Bullying is rampant, starting with executives. Middle managers who shame, ridicule and humiliate their subordinates are rewarded as successful. This has led to a toxic and negative work environment. Flexible work hours are highly discouraged at the corporate office. Employees have one hour enforced lunches, but managers in certain departments verbally reprimand ( never in writing) salaried employees for penny pinching on hours by managers if they notice you taking a lunch break everyday. Work process is highly disorganized in many departments making successful completion of projects a rarity in the company. I have waited two years to write a review on this company hoping my opinion would change. It hasn't changed and I'm left with stress related health issues due to a highly toxic environment and 9X5 work weeks.

Pros

There is not much work to do, perfect job if you are near retirement.

Cons

You do not get recognize for hard work. Management don't really care how much or little you work, as long as you look busy. So that it looks good when the big bosses pass by.

Pros

Very interesting work (if you are in the right group and working for a good Group Lead). Legendary family picnic and many opportunities for your family to see what you do. Advice: Get all you can up-front because your next opportunity may not come before you are gone...

Cons

Minimal to no advancement opportunities and very low pay for engineers.
