Pros

The company is huge... go anywhere you want; do anything you please. There's a serious focus (on paper, tho I've not tested it) on ethics and genuinely doing business the right way.

Cons

on this campus... everyone has a bitter and adversarial approach to working with others. They take what could be a POWERFUL opportunity and take every chance they can to try and strip it down to the frame. Making everything a struggle (even if it does eventually pay off) that doesn't need to exist.

Pros

Pros: you work with good people in your department.

Cons

They promote the wrong people. It's all about who upper level management likes, and not about who works hard and knows the job. There is no work life balance, it's all work. In my department --they demand that you work obscene hours a week because they are so short staffed. Management will walk by and not acknowledge you. HR is not any better. I would not feel comfortable going to them with any issue/problem that I had. The main problem is the highest level management has no clue what is going on with their company, because if they knew the conditions they would be outraged. It is truly an unethical company that prides itself of being ethical.

Pros

Nice new building, good location

Cons

Very uncompetitive salaries and benefits. If you're going for a promotion, they will pay you about 75-80% of what they'll pay an external hire. They coddle non-performing staff and don't reward high performing staff
