Pros

Compensation, relocation and medical are average or above but can vary on drastically. When the company is doing poorly, you will notice changes and sometimes be warned ahead of time to layoffs.

Cons

Poor vision in senior management. Driven by a quick fix rule of thumb mentality that causes frequent resurfacing of quality and design issues. Horrific documentation and standard procedures that fall behind 1940’s standards. Most situations involve quality of material and design from poor communication. Although the issues are simple it is often an over clogged funnel of marbles that chokes out the bunch so not even one can be successful.

Pros

Good work-life balance, good location in terms of weather, nice people to work with in general.

Cons

Senior people are not motivated to work. They complain about lack of opportunity but they don't want to relocate. They just hang around and wait for retirement. Some incompetent line managers sit in their office everyday and do nothing. All they care about is getting paycheck.

Pros

No pros as there is nothing to say

Cons

Old-type traditional Management needs to go 25 more years to adapt to the modern digital world; it speaks a lot but is a highly unorganized company. That is the worst leadership I have seen. It is recommended for people with low technical and zero creative Knowledge. HR and Finance never understand employees and mistreat them.
