Pros

Good benefit and many nice people to work with

Cons

Salary is on the low range Every 2/3 year they do another reorg. They recently hired a bunch =of VP’s from the West Coast that are disrupting the company ( good and bad) but usually lay off managers and lower people to compensate. It’s also a VERY corporate company. They are BIG on diversity but they don’t walk the line. You constantly have to kiss peoples butt to get “visibility”.

Pros

Always busy with challenging work.

Cons

Office politics slows things down, seems like some of the work is about checking a box and not about really creating value or improved processes.
