Pros

A very large company with good pay and stability, until recently. A professional consistent office setting. Many departments create opportunities for mobility. The right manager or department can make a big difference.

Cons

Products never get released. Lack of communication and sharing of ideas and information. Opaque management. Lot of whispering and secrets. Maintaining older technology that no one uses anymore. A feeling that employees don't matter because the company is so large. Innovation is not rewarded. Lip service about corporate culture is not accompanied by action. You feel like you just punch the clock to collect a paycheck. Upper management was consistently brought in from outside the company or in other divisions. The company suffers from a cast system where you are ignored by those on a higher level. The work day can be filled with a long stressful silence.

Pros

- Good benefits - Easy training - They strive to understand how to get someone to their fullest potential

Cons

- No concrete track for promotion, to the point that it seemed impossible - They will not listen to their workers - Management on-site and higher up are very lazy - They will expect you to do the work that they schedule, even if it is impossible to complete - From the perspective of my role in quality control, it seemed impossible to make management, and also production in general, understand the time it takes for certain procedures and tests to be completed and reviewed. - Our entire site is getting shut down, and they are just now ramping up production to meet quotas and schedules. While, at the same time, keeping our severance estimations as vague as possible. - Low to no incentivization for anything
