Pros

Nice people, good work/life balance, good benefits and pay upon entry, glorious past, global brand.

Cons

Constant cost-cutting and layoffs, restructurings, terrible morale. Zero direction from upper mgmt, no raises unless you get promoted, depressing environment overall. Layoffs and cuts are done indiscriminately and occur every quarter after results (which are generally terrible) are announced. Activist investors run the show now. Perhaps it will be a great company again some day but the pain is not worth it.

Pros

Employees at the ground level are dedicated, charitable, and a great good of people. There is a work from home policy that cuts down on commute time. Some of the first level managers are fantastic.

Cons

Layoffs are a constant threat. Upper management does not provide information downstream. Promotions are seemingly based on cronyism. Employee benefits have been steadily decreased over the past few years in favor of shareholder benefits.
