Pros

The people are great; fantastic career opportunities for the 'right' employee; well respected employer in the market - looks great on your resume

Cons

Culture is average; a large proportion of the managers have little or no management skills. Remuneration is terrible and has been for years. Heavy workloads with very little recognition in some areas. Bullying exists through-out the company and HR is useless - tends to act on behalf on management only and not for the employee.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
