"We Put People First" -- until they lay them off.

Pros

Good people to work with. No more typical bureaucracy and delays to get things done than any other large publicly-traded company. Very tight security controls. Have staff solely dedicated to acquisitions, so growth is a constant mode of change. Nepotism is not allowed so at least it's not one of "those" companies.

Cons

Typical bureaucracy and delays to get things done, so less nimble than a smaller privately-owned company. Very tight security controls, best plan to keep your personal Internet use to your own devices and Internet connection. Use this company to grow your resume if you need to, but keep looking for something else; I personally saw several people with well over 10-15 years get handed layoffs with very short notice.

Pros

Colleagues were wonderful for the most part. Benefits package was excellent. Work (when we had it) was interesting. That is all.

Cons

Management was awful. The people really didn't know what they were doing. Treated their best resources poorly and promoted millennials who had no skills save bowing and scraping.
