Pros

Great place for entry level grads. Diversity of products and cultures provide valuable learning experiences. New COO has brought new energy to a previously stagnant and often gloomy work enviornment. It will be interesting to see if his initiatives are successful.

Cons

No clear career path in most departments. Prior senior management was detached from the rest of the organization. Rampant cronyism. Lingering disaffection.

Pros

Remote & flexible working schedules allowed but is given at your manager's discretion- no corporate-wide culture.

Cons

-Low pay (well under market rate) -Poor HR culture- HR rep is not on your side. -Consistent increases in responsibilities while minimizing availability of resources. Associated pay increase either nonexistent or negligible. -Inequitable distribution of work within department -Extremely bureaucratic -Managers can get in the way of promotions/inter-department transfers. -Corporate politics- need to align with the right people to advance. Advancement not necessarily based on merit or ability.
