      Pros

      Big company that can withstand some of the economic down turn longer than others. Best management at the Sales Management level, where these managers understand employees and the needs of the business much more than Director levels. This is a strong company that continues to grow.

      Cons

      Very weak Senior Management at the VP levels. Ego and looking after themselves first is very noticeable vs. taking care of their employees. Director Level is very weak in communication and making decisions, which hurts moral and employee trust. Compensation and benefits have declined every year, and HR is widely known to not be supportive of employees but rather Sr. Management directives to cut cost.

      Pros

      Tons of opportunities, lots of resources, you get to work with new technologies, highly respected company

      Cons

      Compensation is terrible, performance reviews are outdated process, red tape of a large corporation, it takes forever to get anything accomplished, long hours of work are expected, a bad manager can make or break your experience there,

      Overall a decent place to work, but with improvements could be a great place to work.

      Pros

      Overall a decent place to work in many respects. Reasonably good pay for the work.

      Cons

      High workload. This, and continued reduction of time to interface with management and availability of services (HR, EHS, etc.), creates a situation where employees must work harder to complete normal duties, and also work harder just to be seen by top management and accurately evaluated and rewarded for performance and accomplishments.
