Pros

High salaries, free parking, flexible work schedule (depending on manager)

Cons

High salaries make it difficult when you lose your job and have to find a new one. Battelle is definitely above market average from what I've seen. After getting laid off it looks like I'll be taking about a $10k annual cut depending on where I end up. Also cost of benefits is EXTREMELY high.

Poor Management

Pros

Talented and smart engineers. Decent pay.

Cons

Management under new leadership is all about the numbers. They don't watch out for their people. The business development function was a big disappointment. They just laid off hundreds of people. It was messed up because they were hiring all the way through February. Many new hires didn't even get their seats warm and got let go. It seemed that what mattered was not your performance but your connection to the top. Its culture also lacks transparency and diversity.
