Pros

Nice co-workers. Good benefits package. The location to the central area of the city makes it easy to get to and from where you need to go no matter where you are located.

Cons

Work load is entirely too large for the amount of employees in the office. The payband changes recently are adverse to goals of hiring competent employees. The office that I am currently employed handles the entire state. With an office closing less than a year ago one would expect the company to have made up for the lost employees but has not done so.

Pros

Focus on family, work / life balance and diversity. Fairly good benefits (at least until recently) with company 401K matching.

Cons

Bureaucracy and highly charged political environment. Despite 360 surveys and other initiatives, almost no communication gets propagated upstream, communication downstream is often misleading. Management is a mixed bag of goods, with some smart and driven individuals rising through the ranks and predictably leaving the company. Favoritism aplenty. Free interpretation of diversity with many teams having at least one "challenged" individual with the rest of the team having to shoulder his or her part of workload as well. Opportunities for growth or for moving within the company are nothing but a joke in 95% of the cases. No strategic direction when it gets to the middle management level.
