Succesful company, depressing place to work at

Pros

- Great stability, if you like working here or need steady income, you can likely stay here forever without getting fired or laid off. And they have cool pension. - Working constantly with outdated system can actually make you look really fast and proficient when you move to other companies to use up to date systems. - Having to work in business attire everyday can make you look like a pro in front of friends when dressing up for weddings or mafia themed parties.

Cons

- Managers are like gods in this company, don't disagree with them, pretend to really like everything they are into. - Your out of work personality and lifestyle is judged here and will affect your career development within the company. Since employee personalities are so suppressed at work, there are a lot of unhealthy gossiping floating around. Very old school and boring work environment, strict work hours without project based flexibility or much option to work from home.

Decent pay for the work

Pros

Awesome co-workers. I met a lot of life long friends working here. Decent pay for the work you are asked to do

Cons

If you don't have a degree (doesn't matter what it is in) don't ever plan on getting promoted. For a company that prides itself on being at the cutting edge, it is run very archaically.
