Slow and steady

Pros

Management is understanding of life outside of work leading to great work-life balance.

Cons

Decision making can be very slow which is a reflection of the number of layers of approval necessary for change and the complexity of the products.

Pros

Competitive salary, great benefits, flex hours, great work location

Cons

The workload was heavy and the work days were long. There was no formal training so I was forced to learn on the job. My manager was always on travel and was difficult to reach. Coworkers were dog eat dog and difficult to work with.

Good Stable Company

Pros

If you are identified as a high contributor you are treated well. Decent benefits, very good work/life balance most of the time. Never said no to a vacation and the experience has been very good upt ot his point.

Cons

Most of the leadership is progressive with their attitude towards the workforce. Some is not. So sometimes I have found it difficult to fight the balance between walking a politically correct type approach and a get it done type attitude. I don't know that this is company specific, just something that struck me as odd.
