      Lots of Processes

      Pros

      There is a great work / life balance here. Nobody questions you when you schedule a vacation or take personal time off. The work is predictable because it is a process heavy company. This is expected in a place this large with such complex products. Processes are required to get +100,000 to work together effectively. Benefits are good, but are getting reduced.

      Cons

      Process driven work culture leaves little room for creative problem solving. Most engineering tasks are predefined by process documents or in house tools. Skill development is slow. No desire to take risks and innovate for the future.
