Pros

Relatively good salary and benefits. Many talented and hard working individuals doing their best.

Cons

Annual layoffs due to poor management and lack of a strategy they can stick to. Many in senior management have surrounded themselves with their friends leading to a lack of diversity in skills and thought. The majority of the quality long term employees have left, are leaving, or are planning to leave. Year after year, less and less gets accomplished.

Pros

There are many opportunities to move into new lines of work. Management rarely discourages you to take advantage of other opportunities within another department. The company is global which opens many doors if looking to relocate. Benefits are decent including work from home options in various departments.

Cons

Very stressful and unorganized environment. Many changes and restructuring to staff on a regular bases. There is very low moral within the company.
