Pros

Remote work options for some roles.

Cons

Toxic senior management. Senior management is old school, they are not empathetic with current challenges and they lack fresh ideas.

Pros

Generally, good people working for them. Global presence. Values diversity, equity, and inclusion. Competitive PTO.

Cons

Little room for advancement for jobs outside of research. Policies are followed and interpreted differently by manager. PTO is competitive, but using it is difficult, with "unspoken" blackout dates (i.e., weeks to months) for certain employees/groups. Very top heavy on the management side. Upper management seemed to have no idea what some of the groups and even the individual people they managed actually did. Overall, company was too focused on securing federal contracts and didn't learn it's lesson during the first trump administration that they needed to diversify. This led to mass layoffs that don't seem to have an end in sight.
