Pros

The buildings are very clean. If you are lucky you don't have to go there...

Cons

Tons of legacy technology. Massive reorgs happening. Totally disrespect people with experience unless you are cloud focused and totally woke. All the smart people are leaving.

Pros

Currently a good company if you work in IT. The company fancies itself a tech firm - NOT.

Cons

Change in management over the past several years has changed the culture. The attitude used to be treat employees well, they will treat customers well. The new attitude is - management rules by fear and get in line or lose your job.
