Pros

- Company will pay for licensing requirements - Starting pay is sufficient, but not enough to make a living off of alone - There are many different groups for people of different cultures and backgrounds to get together - Hybrid job opportunities

Cons

- Starting pay for entry level employees varies based on hiring date and who you apparently know within the company (nepotism) - No time on the clock is ever offered to go to the events for the culture groups. You must use PTO and request off weeks in advance. - The hybrid opportunities are now changing so more time is being required in. No additional pay for gas or family support (like childcare) assistance is being provided. - Constant hiring of blatantly incompetent people who are not reprimanded in anyway - Some managers will text/call you even while on time off or medical leave to attempt to guilt you into coming back to work.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
