Pros

- Good pay and benefits. - Lower level management is usually helpful and reasonable. - Good work culture in most departments. - Generally friendly atmosphere.

Cons

- Since being bought out by Platinum Equity around 2 years ago there have been repeated heavy cuts and repeated overnight mass layoffs. - The new management put in charge after the buyout have been very opaque about future workflow. - Senior Management seem to be repeatably lying to us about the criteria for layoffs.
