      Its all in what department you work for

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits are very good: 3 week vacation, great 401k with match, onsite gym and various employee discounts.

      Cons

      Like a lot of large corporations, you can get lost in the shuffle. Unfortunately, good people often get overlooked. HR support is virtually nonexistent because they have outsourced the function as well as Accounting.

      Pros

      -Great pay -Limited working hours -Lots of holidays and vacation

      Cons

      - The company is so large that there are entire groups at the company who get paid to do nothing and no one ever says anything. - The technology used in sales is often 20 years old. - They promote their "values" but don't take action against sexist, ageist, or racist behavior unless it happens in a public forum. Even then the person might not be reprimanded. - Many people within the company don't understand how their own products work because there is no encouragement to share among peers at a level they will understand. - They try to encourage leadership and growth but fail at all levels and only promote people to act as placeholders, not to actually use talent. - Limited communication at all levels
