Pros

Good pay,benefits,job security. The employee benefits and resources are great. Great EAP program and discounts.

Cons

Micromanaged, They do not trust employees and treat them like any other resource! Too large and centralized. Unless you are in one of the major operations centers in a large metro, promotions are a rarity. Less community involvement than in years past.

Pros

The company does value employees and shows it through compensation and recognition programs.

Cons

The company is so large that change happens very slowly and internal communications is weak at times. Not necessarily at the corporate level, but more so at the Director/VP level where decisions are made in a vacuum with limited input from mid-level management.
