Pros

They contribute 10% to your pension if you put in 8% They ask you to work 37.5 hours, instead of the 40 some others do.

Cons

They would rather you resign than pay you competitive market rates to keep you. They will make you pay back costs of training if you leave. They delay and refuse to pay bonus payments, and take them back if you leave. The contract has excessive and unnecessary non compete clauses making it difficult to find work once leaving without them sending a team of lawyers after you. They have no interest in advancing your career. I guess that they can behave this way because there's an endless stream of graduates that will keep re-filling positions, giving little incentive to treat you as a long term asset to the company.

Pros

A paycheck, but very little personal or professional satisfaction - and that is because of the management, not the work. I have very little good to say about them and thy pay me well into six figures. terrible company.

Cons

Management is untruthful on almost all levels. Only one-way communication from the top. Poor raises, no training. Constant turmoil in management. Very uneven reward system. Worst company I have worked for in 45 years!

Pros

Great coworkers in my group.

Cons

Poor leaders with no real ethical backbone. You will be asked to do things like not record your overtime. Forget about raises. Your boss will be on vacation 50% of the time. You will not grow professionally and be underpaid without much appreciation.
