Pros

-INSPIRE Program allows employees to recognize one another for a job well done with both a memo and a company-sponsored award. Anyone can recognize anyone, with no limits on awards given, promoting a culture of appreciation. -Parental leave policy is extremely supportive of families -Employer values work/life balance, encourages self-care breaks, and is supportive of taking vacation time

Cons

-As with all large organizations, there are a number of systematic inefficiencies at every level. Additionally, it is often difficult to find the technical information you need due to frequent reorganizations. -If you don't set your own boundaries firmly, it is easy to become overworked, as management does not necessarily know all the projects you are on at once
