Pros

Nice perks; product allowance, healthcare benefits are pretty reasonable, pension is great, vacation time is fair, bar on 7th floor fun, and overall compensation is pretty Competitive. People (co-workers) are generally really nice and easy to work with.

Cons

Upper management doesn't do a great job of coaching or taking time to understand what lower levels are doing. Decisions are being made without truly understand the impact it will have on the teams and employees. Seems to be a reorg every year without an end in sight. Good people are let go and workload increases. Work life balancing is ok. Not great if you are in Finance. But generally feels like everyone is overworked as we have cut to the bone on staff. If you work for the right person, it’s great, but recent leadership changes have made the Finance function a tough and stressful work environment. I had no thoughts of leaving up until this past year. I stuck it out and hoped it would get better, but I feel it’s just another tough year ahead. It’s unfortunate, because we are at risk of losing some really great talent.
