Pros

Some free time to seek employment elsewhere.

Cons

The company has rolled out a new SalesForce system for distributing appointments. Sales people are now "on call all day" running their own cars with no gas milage reimbursement in a 100 mile diameter area. You spend more time in your car than you do face-to-face with a customer. appointments are set 50 away from your home with little to none in your own area. Bonus Commissions have dropped and they demand 4 hours free labor in the store on Saturday to generate leads.

Pros

it's a stable safe company to work for it's not going out of business any time soon so-so stock options

Cons

pay is sub-par few to no perks corporate meetings are more like high school pep rallies much of IT is going to a jack of all trades master of none approach did away with specific devops groups and now everyone on every team has to learn how to do everything on their own time while doing everything as well no IT training opportunities which is worse when they suddenly expect everyone to be able to do all the jobs required for IT projects forced paired programming without trying to match technical skills or at least technical aptitude
