Great brand name, poor employer.

Pros

Great brand name. A lot of room for growth if they'd wake up.

Cons

They place no value whatsoever on their employees. No opportunities for advancement. Antiquated processes. A lot of knuckleheads in management positions.

OK place to start out of school. Not a place for a long term career.

Pros

Co-workers. They provide benefits but each year they get more and more expensive for less coverage.

Cons

No clear direction on where the business is headed. 4 re-organizations in less than 2 years. Trying to do too much in a short period of time. Lack of focus. Low employee morale. Huge emphasis on innovation right now but absolutely no follow through or funding to back it up. No work/life balance. 10 hour days and some weekends are expected. You will be consistently low-balled on your salary and have to fight for every cent when you get a promotion.
