      Good place, but not like it used to be ...

      Pros

      In the past years (in a bit of a slump right now) the gainsharing program has been great. Lots of great technologies and smart people, though sometimes difficult to get access to and become accomplished in those technologies in any way to differentiate yourself.

      Cons

      Company is becoming increasingly bureaucratized and loosing much of that 'Progressive' feel it had not too long ago. Ever since firings in November, there's less of a feeling of devotion and fun amongst staff. We want the company to do well, but have less faith in that than in the past.

      Lots of changes, all the time, but usually for the better.

      Pros

      The overall atmosphere is great. Every office I have worked at is like a family.

      Cons

      Micromanagement, hours are long if you are within your first year, and the way they determine raises. You are ranked as exceeds, standard or dnm - does not meets. You can be ranked exceeds in everything but personal developement was a small factor that is personal opinion and you could usually lose your raise there. Now, it has changed to another form, which still makes it difficult to get raises.

      A leading insurance company.

      Pros

      It's a big company, and has the resources to offer many opportunities for training and career growth. There are also opportunities to work in different areas of the company, which allows you to get breadth of experience. If you don't like working in one area, you can fairly easily move to other areas. There are pretty clear processes and procedures for almost everything, so if you like structure, this is the place to be. Many departments, other than those with direct customer contact, have liberal dress codes. There are some nice employee-friendly perks, such as exercise centers, in-house medical clinics, etc.

      Cons

      There are many, many layers of management. This can translate to decision makers who are insulated from the information they need. Another downside is the "gain-sharing" plan which makes a nice bonus in good years but in lean years can bring your pay below what you may have planned. Because there are processes and procedures for almost everything, it may be difficult to innovate or make changes. This is particularly true with some managers who may be afraid to rock the boat. Of course, there are some managers who can apply common sense to help get the job done too.
