Pros

Good people to work with. Good work lift balance.

Cons

+ Not a good company to work longterm. Management is set on hiring and promoting females which puts young, smart, and ambitious men at a great disadvantage. Females will be given preference for promotions and when promotions are rare, men have very little room to grow. + Pay not in line with inflation and other industries pay better. + Company’s middle and top management is deaf to issues brought up by low level employees. + Comoany has reservation quotas to hire and retain females at all levels of management

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
