Corporate culture FAIL...

Pros

My boss is awesome, and the technology base is varied. Exposure to a wide range of different clouds and infrastructure. The work-life balance in my team is fantastic.

Cons

The pay sucks. The corporate culture sucks. The promotions are non-existant. The bureaucracy is immense. HR is a joke. The last 3 years have seen increased benefits cost increases that outstrip the pay raises, so essentially that's a pay cut 3 years running. In a dying industry (printing) this behemoth is clinging to any method of making money, including giving authority to any sales rep who makes a buck to demand whatever they want with impunity. Their M.O. is to cut costs by 3% a year, and they been doing it so long they're well through the fat, muscle, and bone and are on to the marrow.

Used to be a good place to work, but things change.

Pros

Pay was certainly good, and the company is quite large. Despite some departments downsizing, others were growing and prevented quite a few skilled labor positions from being eliminated.

Cons

Management and the corporate culture is simply bad. This company is a majority employer in the area and it used to be a respected place to work. Management simply killed it, and the culture is one of fear and "at least you have a job" types of attitudes. Poor management decisions created even more unqualified managers and has turned the company into a sinking ship trying to stay afloat in a dying industry. Benefits regularly decreased. Pension dropped, 401k options diminished, and health benefits that rival non-group coverage.

Pros

-- As part of a small team, I work at my own pace -- I sort-of make my own schedule -- They are pretty good at giving me the tools I need to design what they want

Cons

-- Health Benefits are not the best -- The pay cap is below the national average for my skills set -- This year saw a company-wide 1% raise, which is just not enough. -- There isn't a lot of creative freedom in the projects I am designing
