Pros

Generally stable, good benefits packages, decent pay. Many talented co-workers so there are good opportunities to learn new skills and knowledge

Cons

Work environment is terrible; to save money, management is cramming more and more people into the same office space, making the environment stressful and counter-productive. Despite obvious detrimental impact on employees, management is continuing the process because, seemingly, they really don't care about the employees Culture is deteriorating quickly; lots of politics and back-stabbing. It wasn't like this before but under the current CEO, things have gone downhill significantly

Pros

Comparing to my previous experience, really nothing special. Salary payment on time.

Cons

Too many people treating the place as retirement home. No drive, no risk taking. Very frustrating to get anything done. Mgmt very inexperienced in people management and no opinions asked when moving people, "my way or highway" type mentality. Still dress shirt mentality, for fun I break it every day and get looks :-)
