Pros

none none none none none none none none none none none none none none none

Cons

Don’t pay overtime, but still expect “flexible hours” from workers. Expect employees to keep putting their hands in THEIR pockets for expenses, which are EVENTUALLY repaid, No such thing as a float. Give a USELESS American Express “company” credit card which WE have to pay by direct debit and then claim back !!! No appreciation, NO career path esp. if you are MALE. This is a slave-driving American company. I wouldn’t advise my worst enemy to work for this crowd. If I could get out I would !

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
