Pros

Great people; convenient headquarters. Nice to only work a strict 8-5 schedule.

Cons

Horrible HR practices, bad managers, even worst employee engagement. Every day there I spent in fear of not only my own manager, but the chairman.

Pros

Strong economic stability in the industry, opportunities for advancement within and out of divisions, decent commute depending on where you live. Very professional work environment with solid structure. Great place to kick off your career and develop skills further.

Cons

Employees look like they are having the worst day of their life, every day. Constant turnover due to poor work life balance, causing issues getting unresolved and left behind for the next person. Most employees at the entry to mid level are replaceable in the eyes of senior management. This is reflected in the terrible compensation given the area the company is located in. Formal dress policy everyday. Even a slight color shade deemed "unprofessional" may get you sent home. Employees never feel truly comfortable in the environment fostered here. High workload is expected with minimal appreciation given.

Pros

Colleagues/co-workers are the best, they make going to work everyday worth it. A smart bunch of folks who make a difference!

Cons

Very difficult to move up the latter. The hiring practices seems to be about who you know in upper management. Diversity in the workplace is non-existent. Upper Management is all white and male.
