Pros

Good review mostly due to my Director and collegues (90%). This company doesn't lay people off in droves.

Cons

Raises are few and far between and the company generally pays less for the same job than other companies in the area. Most people are overworked (hence the lack of lay offs) and it's easy to get burned out if you make an effort for some work/life balance. The poor economy makes people fear making waves (by asking to be paid better for the extra efforts) and management takes advantage of this.

Pros

Value people and commit to a no layoff standard Profit sharing program for all employees remained intact even during the crash Evolving corporate culture

Cons

Hierarchical, coming out of the maritime tradition Corp culture is working to get to the 21st century Very few people of color in positions of authority, or even in the HQ workforce overall Payscale is not appropriate for seattle, making retention an issue
