Great on the surface but not so much on the inside depending on division

Pros

Very well organized and does good work for the share holders

Cons

Low pay, very bad communications with the exception of a weekly newsletter that highlights high level topics and company successes. No intra or inter department meetings. Have not heard from director or division head but once since COVID work from home began and that was a about an upcoming audit - the tone of which was negative and felt like we were high-schoolers. Pay is not competitive nor are raises regular despite the company's stability.

Great work life balance . No management to direct or tell you what to do . Great people at headquarters. Can work remote almost entire week . Some projects are great . Good place to work to collect a paycheck with minimal work done

Cons

No direction . Cheap in all areas that can think of . Absolutely no growth and slow to get anything done. Messed up organizational chart with multiple bosses . Pay is just ok and no raises . Yearly review sucks . Poor communication
