Pros

Pay and Benefits, work from home flexibility Work with great people internally and with volunteers externally

Cons

Micro-Management and politics Outdated operating systems which are replaced with incomplete system updates that "will be fixed later", and are still broken many years later causing issues for the next system replacement. Ideas are typically ignored unless you are a favorite. I have given my ideas to other favorites after being given to management only to then see them considered. Currently undergoing a digital transformation which has been more of a staff purge(50% of tenured staff of 5 plus years let go) Note: Many of the positive reviews are coming from volunteers. They do reflect how well volunteers are treated. Unfortunately, it does not reflect how the staff are treated at PMI.
