Monsters, Inc.

Pros

Good pay and benefits...for a while. Deep corporate pockets and resources. Good training opportunities. A very few absolutely wonderful managers that taught their employees much and created environments of support and freedom where success flourished. Good intentions as a company.

Cons

Worked for some excellent managers, but the monstrous ones within and outside of my department were allowed to run rampant, harming or destroying great employees and squandering resources, setting the overall culture. I saw some truly atrocious behaviors tolerated toward loyal, productive employees. Downright cruelty by a few created the worst morale I’ve ever witnessed in certain departments. It was shocking what was allowed by such a seemingly solid, upright corporation at the local level. Witnessing this became what defined my experience at this company, far outweighing many other more positive things. Wasted opportunities and resources, only lip service paid to innovation. Long-term freezes on hiring and raises created unmanageable workloads, diminished quality and low morale. Management-heavy, needed more workers, fewer chiefs.

Pros

Great people trying their best to do great work. Fun atmosphere at times.

Cons

Top leadership has significant challenges making decisions, handling conflict, and implementing change. There are constant lay-off, so it most likely won't be a stable or long term position.

Pros

You're employed -- that's about it.

Cons

Horrible pay (literally YEARS without raises, even for employees with great reviews), ridiculously unrealistic expectations, upper-level management trying to squeeze blood from a stone.
