Pros
Good benefits, "unlimited" PTO/Sick time. Good teams and culture in some scenarios. Every other friday off with 9/80 schedule.
Cons
The recent removal of hybrid work modality. Return To Office mandate effective 9/16/2024. Upper management is thirsty for cost-cutting and is becoming micro-managers. Promotion freezes. The high learning curve, it is more than just knowing how to do your job. Lots of learning huge systems and their nuances along with your job. Not many opportunities for career growth for younger individuals. One path forward into management. The Timecard system must be completed daily with detailed charging instructions, even though you are salaried. Overall hostile attitude towards remote & hybrid workers from corporate. New-hires will be paid more than higher levels due to meager 1-3% yearly raises. Does not keep up with inflation. Cafeteria options are not great at all, not free, and is on the pricier side. Some areas of the company expect overtime or strongly suggest it.
