Pros

Good Benefits, flexible schedule, good pay

Cons

Toxic environment, management will keep putting more work on staff until they are overworked, if you ask for help you will get written up, if you make suggestions for improvement's you will get written up again or put on a PIP. Poor training which is then used against you for not training your self better. Speak up ethics complaint just shares the info with current manager who then retaliates against the employee. Just a tool to protect the company from lawsuits by employees. Manager takes employee's idea as their own. Worst job I have ever had.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
