Pros

Great mission, that hasn't changed, and interesting people as a result. There are some places with interesting technology. Products all over the place if you like that.

Cons

Bad pay lots of pressure, not a good combination. They don't seem to care about the employees enough. Purchasing cuts have made the job frustrating and much of the technology is very old and technical debt isn't paid down.

Pros

They do actually pay me

Cons

Long hours in a high pressure and highly dysfunctional environment. Despite what they claim in their mission statement, it is profits first and foremost, not people nad certainly not the non-profits they claim to serve. Constant shrink in benefits Too many semi to non-technical managers, not enough technical people More interested in selling new features or products than producing good products Really poor teamwork

Pros

Some autonomy within individual teams

Cons

Seemingly, corporate goals are more driven by sales goals and gobbling up competitors rather than on the long term plan of being able to properly staff the business increases. Would like to see more employee support for increased work loads.
