Pros

The employees are phenomenally talented, bright and I miss them immensely. The benefits package, amenities and HQ campus environment are world class. The ability to make changes to process and challenge status quo is solid - change is generally embraced.

Cons

All that glitters is not gold. The outside world sees the media hype, but it is just another organization with flaws and its on the decline. The pay rates are inadequate when compared to others in the industry. Inconsistent standards from one division to another are morale busters. The lack of a clearly defined and communicated succession plan is detrimental to retaining quality employees and undermines client relationships -- it is primed for an acquisition particularly when Dr. Goodnight passes.

Pros

Nice severance packages after working for 25 years.

Cons

The worst, most inhumane termination process. No dignity, no respect, no explanation, no concern for you as a person, your loyalty, your dedication, or service. A waste of your time and energy.
