Good products and interesting company with very poor management

Pros

Salary was fair and flex time allowed. In the 1980's, this company was awesome.

Cons

Where do I start? Health benefits are poor and get worse every year. Co. expects you to travel, work weekends and long days to meet unreasonable deadlines. Management, especially in IT lacks creativity and fears change. Count on a 3 % raise every year IF you are a good employee. They lay seemingly useful people off (too high salaried ?) and keep the lazy ones.
