Pros

Great and loyal co-workers. South Puget Sound commute.

Cons

Technology is treated as a necessary evil. Thus they have no clear direction for those that work in IT. Applications, infrastructure and vendors are swapped out on a monthly basis. No IT Leadership. The current business that makes the money claims the direction conch. The CIO position has been diluted to figurehead by committee position at the director level. Keep the Lights On: This company used to be known for its innovation. Technology was what set it apart from the competition. The survival mentality has brought up a generation of leadership that will not invest in people or technology. They count on the last remaining remnants of their glory days: The loyalty of their employees. Arrogance: They offer an IT salary and compensation that is equal to other Timber companies and yet they are only 20 miles away from the top IT companies in the world.

Pros

-If you are willing to work hard, you will advance quickly -If you are a female or minority, you will advance quickly -Big corporation, many benefits and perks to make you feel that you are taken care of

Cons

-Very poor upper level management (I have been told it is region specific and my region is considered poor) -Preferential treatment to "boot lickers" -Some coworkers will follow you and check into your daily work activities to inform management -Upper level management encourages and supports females and minorities, but some company employees with 10+ years experience work hard to devalue such individuals -Many promotions are earned yet there are also just as many who receive theirs by favoritism -Many long-standing employees are useless and don't do their jobs

Pros

They are one of the few companies around that still offer pension. They value their employees and respect one another.

Cons

Because it is a big company, perhaps there is still politics involved. However, it did not affect me that much.
