Pros

Privately held company, so the owner was able to make good decisions for the "long-term" even if it meant some bumps in the short term.

Cons

After the merger with Elk Corporation, I saw a major change, and not for the better. Also, no work/life balance. Expectations were high, and people resources were limited.

Pros

Great company with supportive and talented people, an excellent work/life balance, and a positive culture. I truly enjoyed my time there and will miss it, I really loved working at this company.

Cons

Some processes and team structures could benefit from further modernization, particularly in expanding Agile adoption compared to leading IT organizations.

Pros

Cafeteria food is decent and the building is nice

Cons

This place has really gone in the gutter over the years, hard to see how it will turn around. If you’re thinking about joining, the industry is Good but I’d stay far far away from GAF
