Pros

Colleagues are great to work with, and mid-management do all they can to help you be successful. Unlimited PTO, and ability to work remote.

Cons

Drastically changing culture is contributing to massive attrition, which is really unfortunate as really great people are leaving the organization. Employees are now seen as an "expense" instead of assets to the company. For being a large company, the health coverage is outrageous.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
