      Pros

      Competitive pay and decent benefits

      Cons

      Company has turned very political pushing vaccination and requiring masks. There are far too many managers. Poor work performance is tolerated.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Potential to keep learning. Multidisciplinary.

      Cons

      Joined the company excited to indulge in curiosity and now completely mistrustful of the prevailing organizational culture. Plenty of egomaniacs lowering the bar for everyone else. Behind the facade of "Minnesota nice" is a world of self-centeredness being expressed via passive aggression. I don't know when it got this way, but smart people out there.. don't let your capabilities wither away. Thrive elsewhere.

      Male dominated company using diversity as window dressing

      Pros

      Great people and technology, good opportunities to learn and grow. Competitive pay and benefits.

      Cons

      Male dominated culture. Lots of clicks, managers promote their buddies. Mid-level managers have giant egos and are not afraid to sabotage female and minority employees if their egos are threatened. Upper level management either are clueless or prefer not to do anything about the abuses.
