Pros

Great people employed by UL The most part. They are smart and eager to do the right thing without cutting corners. The work is rewarding and there is always something new to learn.

Cons

Management is one of the big drawbacks at Underwriters labs inc. They expect employees to do incoming producing work without proper tools. Too many meetings to tick a check mark in their goals. Everyone complains - but can't let management know because they don't know how to accept criticism. There is a lot of cronyism. They find creative ways to reduce your ranking so they can take bonus money away from you and reward their favorites. Too much things to do that do not add to the bottom line.

Pros

A couple of nice people, the work can be interesting

Cons

The worst management I have ever encountered; absolutely no room for advancement; extremely high employee turnover rate; if you're hired as a temp, you will not be hired permanently as promised, you will just be strung along for as long as you can stand it; mandatory over time EVERY week; the morale in the office is the lowest I have ever seen anywhere. They have no concept of work life balance. Please, if you value your sanity and happiness, do not work here.

No raises because there's no money....and there won't be for a long time because no one in management knows how to lead.

Pros

Peers are nice for the most part. They really tolerate a great deal of unacceptable behavior at all levels so if you can ignore bizarre / bipolar behavior you will be ok. Just be a "yes" man or woman and you will do fine.

Cons

This company is 120 years old and they were not for profit for 115 years. They are not equipped to handle functioning in a for-profit environment. A bunch of lazy, slackers with a tremendous sense of entitlement abound here. It can be quite a toxic environment and will really get to you if you let it.
