Pros

It's a job. There are some great people to work with. Unfortunately they don't outnumber those who are not. Peers claim the benefits are great. My experience, I don't think so. It's a large company so it's easy to be lost if you're someone who abhors notice or spotlight. If you are easily satisfied or like to drift by in the anonymity of a large corporation this is the job for you.

Cons

Stagnant pay. Bonus... not anymore. Training, that's gone too. Performance completely unrecognized. Management responsibility is thrust on the employee as if it's a privilege to do their work. Expectation is that you're on call 24x7 and because you have no life you can go where they point at a moments notice. If you as an employee don't have enough resources or time to complete your work well that must be a fault of the employee not management.

Pros

Some nice experienced people who are willing to help. Steady work, nice products

Cons

You are a number, working hard does not matter because it is not noticed. No raises, no bonus, human resources is an absolute joke. Promotion is based on the buddy system. Upper management and CEOs profits go up, the lower class stay the same or get let go like they do not matter
