Pros

Company focuses on building good moral among employees. Pension and company matching contributions to 401k. Good benefits.

Cons

Vice Presidents and CEO are really adamant about everyone coming back to the office even though it actually hurts productivity in most positions and doesn’t provide tangible benefits. They add more in office days with short notice and currently it sits at a minimum of 3 days or more depending on the position. A lot of areas are short staffed so the additional workload has made maintaining a good work life balance increasingly difficult without the flexibility of working remote. Hard work is also usually rewarded with more responsibility and work without any increase in pay or flexibility.

Pros

There were so many opportunities when I first started ten years ago. Benefits were good but standard. HAD a great reputation of keep good employees.

Cons

All that changed last year when they laid off 2% of their workforce with no prior notice. Morale has gone down. Workload has increased. Upper management is known for conducting interviews while already knowing who they're already going to hire. The do the interviews so they can appear to be fair.
