Pros

-competitive starting pay -great 401k matching (7%), great pension for those that stay 15+ years -generally high caliber of coworkers -good flexibility for families -easy to coast through a long career with minimal work effort

Cons

- years of managers gaming the ranking system with all the retiring employees has led to 80% of people in the "middle 1/3rd" grouping and 5-10% of people are in the "top 20%" -the only ranking that really matters is your very first one at year 2, all future reviews only result in small movements, and only if your manager has "points to give"

Pros

Good pay and a pension

Cons

Everything else. Benefits are lackluster, Flex Your Day policies are elusive. The company changes everything all the time so that a large portion of your time is spent finding new links to things on the portal, figuring out who to contact in various departments and in what country just to get a simple answer to a question. No one stays in the same role long enough to get good at their job. Morale is terrible.
