Pros

Co-workers are great, solid benefits, phenomenal work events on a regular basis.

Cons

- Terrible management styles from most direct managers - Overall poor communication - Do not want to train you since they go through new people regularly - If you disagree with anything management does "there is the door" - Nothing you say will change how management works/solve the ongoing problem that has persisted for a couple years as told by former and current employees - Limited growth opportunities based on current lead manager gatekeeping changes within the company

Pros

Good pay, generous benefits, and for the most part good people

Cons

Very traditional management and thick impenetrable layers of bureaucratic inefficiencies. Impossible to introduce new ideas unless you are part of a select few.
