      Pros

      I can't think of any pros from this firm while I was in their employ, the benefits, the people and especially management and HR are all garbage. If you enjoyed being lied to, being severely underpaid, and overworked. Ok you do get free soft drinks.

      Cons

      Horrible communication, horrible management, don't get me wrong they take care of management needs at the employees expense.

      Used to be good place, now like a sinking ship

      Pros

      Pension, solid PTO and holidays. For exempt employees great flexibility of schedule. Non-exempt employees can makeup time in place of PRoas well. Cafeteria and Good perks like on site gym.

      Cons

      Reorg after reorg and lack of transparency has the staff in operations areas constantly fearful for their jobs. Poor leadership are kept around or just moved to different locations. Senior leadership invents and reinvents visions and focuses annually, leaving the staff lost on what the highest priorities are. The talent in the company is leaving at a terrifying pace.

      Pros

      Co-Workers and daytime hours are good.

      Cons

      Unstable and financially underwater. Trying to get out of the hole by doing more work with less staff.
