Pros

good benefits, great location. I really can't say much more. See the 'Cons' Section for information about why it's not a great place to work.

Cons

For some reason, the managerial culture is very intent on making people feel like idiots. There is no training, guidance, development, or mentorship. Everyone is basically treated like an idiot with few acceptions.

Pros

9/80 work schedule. Benefits are decent. One of the few comapnies that offer a pension in addition to 401k.

Cons

Too many management layers. Promotions seem to be based on who you know, and if you fit into the right "clique". Some promotions are being given to managers with no experience in the function. Executuve leadership appears out of touch with their employees. Example - Chaotic games have been played the last 3 years with remote and hybrid work policies.
