Pros

Good benefits. Decent pay. Consistent annual bonus. Flexible work arrangements with part- time telecommuting. Rock solid company.

Cons

Micromanagement of every-day decisions has gotten out of control. Constant, revolving door changing of processes. "Too much A, Not enough B. Now too much B, and Not enough A." Over and over and over, year after year. Management preaches independent decision making, but then requires constant justification of minutiae. Too many decisions based on assumptions rather than thorough analysis of data.

The company has many positive initiatives and promotes advancement, whether it's real is not clear. Plenty of training available.

Managers are poor and it can be difficult to form positive relationships.
