      Pros

      Management is pretty relaxed but I think that's only because they avoid any type of conversation with their team members. The benefits are also solid.

      Cons

      The list is extensive but the only thing I will mention is they just laid off an entire department right before yearly bonuses and apparently the meeting lasted no longer than 5 minutes a nobody saw it coming.

      Pros

      Terrible toxic culture. Employees are powerless against good ole boys club. Almost every function is riddled with the wrong people in the wrong roles. Worse, the GE “bottom 10%”has taken over this year and only added to the already horrific culture. Very few remaining great people (most have bailed) and talent fighting old regime. Crazy politics and intolerable, incapable management. The place is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

      Cons

      Power struggles and bullies. No systems or process. If you’re thinking about taking a role here, run away. I think I get stupider every day. Place is a disaster.
