Pros

The benefits were fantastic, 401k match, HSA funding, pension and PTO. My work/life balance was great, but that is completely dependent on your manager

Cons

There is definitely some favoritism and there are some really good employees that were laid off while unproductive employees stayed.

Pros

Stability and Benefits. Not much else

Cons

No communication, top down management, no training, under qualified management. More ladder climber than leaders. Good people leave... fast.
