      "Excellence in Workplace Learning and Professional Development"? Uhmmm...

      Director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I guess they pay ok, and there are some opportunities - more so than a small company. I guess .

      Cons

      Not sure how the whole learning excellence thing came about, because across the firm, learning professionals were the first ones to be let go in order to satisfy Carl Icahn's profitability goals. There's no learning. You're on you're own except what you can learn from your peers.

      Epitome of the negatives of working for a large firm

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The benefits used to be exceptional. With the cut of the pension plan ("and it's gone"), they are still probably really good , with lots of vacation time, 401(k) match and the 12 weeks maternity/paternity leave. Work-life balance was tremendous, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore with layoffs leaving significantly fewer people to do the same work.

      Cons

      -Compensation not tied to performance and potential. -Review system and job grading are meaningless and insulting when top-rated performers are still shoved to the bottom of the pay scale with no effort to move them up to even the middle of the salary range. -Senior management either has no idea what is happening on the ground-level, or worse, doesn't care that their subordinates are being put in a position to fail. -The declaration of the CEO about the lack of growth potential, cuts to perks and benefits and continuously looming layoffs creates an atmosphere akin to a morgue or Cincinnati sporting event. -Management treats employees as liabilities and a burden instead of the assets they (mostly) are.
