Pros

Terrific pay and benefits, but no life balance even though they preach it !

Cons

Strictly a "who you know" company. Fairness is based on who you know. If you go to HR, OMG, you have a target on your back. If you want to move to a different position, the paperwork is impossible to find.

Pros

Excellent benefits and focus on well-being, best benefits I've ever had. Paid time off was granted in full on January 1 every year, no accruals, could be used anytime.

Cons

No growth oppurtunities. Despite repeated attempts, it was very hard to get promoted in this company or pursue new oppurtunities. Management seemed to have favoritism towards certain people. Workload can sometimes be chaotic and unpredictable, lack of direction and overall no sense of teamwork amongst peers, everyone seemed like they were in their own little bubble all the time and hard to get help and collaboration when working on projects.
