Solid company but slow to change

Pros

The company is well-respected and has thousands of talented people working for it. But over the last 10 years or so, it has been slow to adapt to new media and the effectiveness of social media and mobile apps. Salaries are very fair. The work is exciting and so is travel associated with it.

Cons

The company has been slow to adapt to changing times. Very stuck in its ways. Stories on the app are way too long. They need a much shorter word count. Also, while the guild has some benefits it has allowed many workers who are past their prime to continue as dead weight. The guild protects lazy and less productive workers. Management is often powerless in weeding out less productive and non-adaptive workers.
