Pros

Decent benefits, including tuition reimbursement.

Cons

Many managers do not have the necessary skills to manage people (ex: micro-management, lack of vision, complacency). There is a tremendous disconnect between executive level management and those doing the day-to-day business execution. Unfortunately, many talented employees leave due to these and other career stalling issues. Other tenured employees simply stop caring about the job and just go through the motions, until they can retire.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
