Pros

The company is passionate about its mission and continuing the legacy the founder set up. Alleviating pain, restoring health, and extending life is the focus and motivates and directs work done at all levels of the organization. Great opportunities for advancement - you own your career path and as long as transparency is kept with managers they will help you get the exposure and experiences to prove yourself - management cares about their team Great quality internal training & resources to employees for further developing skills (soft & technical skills) Huge organization and everyone is receptive to helping eachother out, so great opportunities to learn best practices from a number of vantage points across the globe Hard work is well recognized Great compensation

Cons

Work-life balance is not consistent: some months are easily 55+hrs, some are <40hrs, highly dependent on which site you work at

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
