Pros

Good benefits, 40-Hour Work Week, and the ability to work 10-hour days for four days a week and take the fifth day off. They have a mature Human Resources and Management Structure.

Cons

Salary increases were small and only about every 24 months, the increase barely covered the cost of living increase. A significant amount of travel is required for some positions.

Pros

Really smart and honestly dedicated people at work. Not one of the so called American companies that are almost entirely staffed by foreign workers. Good mix of all cultures and types.

Cons

Management does not know what to do with the company's future. Late to every game. Innovation is limited to buying companies that innovate. Lays off really respected and senior people without impunity. Tries to get the entire company as large and diverse as IBM to follow common policies. Ends up not letting anyone grow to true potential.
