Pros

Flexible hours, location, sometimes meeting interesting people

Cons

There’s too many. Not valuing minorities and women. Managers make discriminatory comments and they apply it as well. They are not afraid. This place need to go under an audit by government.

Pros

The salary is ok if you need a job but not great compensation.

Cons

My assigned group was in chaos. There was a management transition happening and numerous employees in my group were unhappy. New management was making a lot of unpopular changes and new to the management position. When I started, there was no clear plan for my job assignments. I was open-minded so I was ok, but was often given tasking other employees no longer wanted. The level of work given well surpassed the level I was hired for. Also no relocation assistance was provided! This is a red-flag for a company being cheap or a sign of an unimportant job! I've always received relocation assistance in the past. I also received no cost of living increase. Just a basic 10% bump although the area I was relocating to had a higher cost of living and I was underpaid along with most new employees in my group. Advice- if you know you were/are underpaid in your previous/current job, reasonably boost your last salary because HR gives little consideration. I only stayed for several months! Ironically, a family member had a bad experience with this same company in a totally different location! Future employee beware! This company is definitely sub par compared to its top competitors...

Pros

There are some professional, courteous, collaborative people here. Unfortunately they're not managers, directors or vps. Pros are execeedingly few and far between.

Cons

Zero investment in people/management in the last 30 years. And it shows. Promotions based on who is in the right spot, at the right time, nodding in the right direction. Culturally this company is decades behind and smart people recognize that even if they're initially duped into accepting an offer. Poor leave, below average compensation, managers who have no people skills.
