      Good Company

      Engineering manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pro-employee. Excellent benefits. Good core values and global management team.

      Cons

      Highly political management. Poor maternity/paternity benefits in US. Political climate allows lots of employees that contribute very little to remain employed.

      Great Company; Large Hiearchy

      Senior financial analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits. Although gone are the days of the pension, they offer great 401k match, low cost premiums for Medical, Dental, Vision, etc. among many other incentives. If you have the right boss, the job is really flexible. I can work from home a few days a month. We have busy times where we work late, but in the slow times nobody complains if you leave a little early. My previous 3 bosses have all worked with me to implement a development plan to help me move up and achieve my goals.

      Cons

      The structure is HUGE. I report data to at least 4 different management groups (local, regional, business unit, product specific...). This causes a lot of waste in my opinion. Also they can be really slow to adopt new policies and with the large management sometimes getting buy-in for improvements is impossible. Your development really depends on your direct supervisor. I've been lucky, but I have colleagues who try to set up a 5 year plan with their boss and they get 0 support.
