Pros

Great environment, cooperative people, good products (but being rapidly caught by competition). A heritage of collaborative and supportive culture, but...

Cons

... that counts for nothing when senior management level is totally comprised of self serving individuals with personal agendas and very little 21st century management competence. Their response to negative staff feedback is a load of comedy initiatives (keeps the expanding HR team occupied spose), which patronise the staff and miss the underlying chronic issues. None of the 'managers' seems accountable for repeated failures (chaotic re-organisation, badly executed redundancy programme, sales training, cost control etc). Most of Sales management seems incapable of ..selling or management.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
