Pros

None I can think of. This was a great place to work, no longer.

Cons

Senior management has destroyed this company and continues to make poor decisions. Workers scapegoated for senior management failure. There is no accountability for Upper management. They still receive obscene levels of compensation whether they deliver or not and are guaranteed golden parachutes upon exit. This company wastes money hand over fist and continues to compound this by having to pay to undo messes.They don't care about the quality of the work but Just want to maximize profits at any cost. Workers are looked at as an expense rather than a resource that can build capital. They continue to export jobs to countries with cheap labour and human rights abuses.

Pros

Could "phone job in." Bonuses did not reflect personal effort. Excellent benefits.

Cons

When good times were over, place became worse than high school with its cliques. Promotions go to the best tush kisser or who looks good in a picture instead of actual talent.
