Pros

Excellent benefits, some very interesting colleagues, multi-national business allows you to meet people from all over the world, and travel to far flung corners of the world. Current CEO is very willing to change things.

Cons

Too hierarchical,HR team is very weak; Senior managers afraid to tell the CEO the truth and also afraid to go along with his ideas for change.

Pros

Company is big enough to give people global opportunities, and small enough where you have a chance to make a real difference. We have good people who are exceptional at what they do. Strong values throughout the company.

Cons

Focus can be too much on Boston. Work can be a bit siloed at times. Not sure how well we work across businesses and functions.

Pros

The on-boarding process was very smooth, my manager set clear expectations and I have well-defined priorities. Many people went out of their way to welcome me and ensure I had access to the tools and resources necessary to do my job. Overall a great culture with excellent work/life balance while also providing room to advance in my career. So happy I made the decision to work here.

Cons

While my on-boarding process went well, there could have been more of a concerted effort to announce my new role with key stakeholders.
