Pros

Good pay, excellent benefits, low cost and excellent health insurance. Company upper management is excellent and constantly reminds employees at all levels of responsibility to the customer.

Cons

Management seems determined to drive the company toward expensive and unreliable renewable electricity, They use government incentives to keep cost down, but don't seem to have a plan for the long term.

Pros

Standard methods, cloud infrastructure, and reliance on in house staff over contractors makes it very easy to implement safe, fast, consistent changes. You will be valued as a human and you will have a voice within this company. You can make a career here. Your coworkers and immediate leadership are all talented and intelligent individuals who actually know how to do the same work you are doing.

Cons

AI rollout and unevenly applied hybrid work made things difficult for employees with disabilities and those that lived far from office who had traditionally worked remote or for tasks that do not lend themselves well to AI overhead
