Pros

Decent pension and health benefits. Company perenially makes huge profits, so is not affected by downturn in the economy, but employees are not rewarded accordingly.

Cons

All but a few jobs in the headquarters have been outsourced or moved to less expensive countries. Middle to upper management turnover every 2 or 3 years, so there no people at theses levels who are actually engaged or interested in the company's success. Every year the company terminates large numbers of older workers and replaces them with entry level people, short term contractors, and outsourced jobs.

Pros

A technology company so far behind that there is always interesting projects going on. In the past year executive leadership seems to have some focus and it does not feel like organization ADD. Benefits are very competitive.

Cons

A very consistent pattern of RIF's every few months. It is interesting that it is not always the lower performers, be very careful expressing an opinion for progress to middle management or you will very likely find yourself on the next RIF list. This is a management team that thinks they know it all. There are very few examples of leaders in this group, most are bosses, will make sure to tell you how to do the job. If you are coming in make sure to get a very good understanding of the expectation of role and responsibilities. If you are skilled you will be taken advantage of and asked to contribute at higher grade levels but performance and advancement is very subjective and there is no transparency in organizations like IT about what it takes to move to next levels. Unless of course you are playing that middle management stroking feathers game right..
