Politics over competence

Pros

Great benefits, access to research.

Cons

The company focuses more on promoting brown nosers than competent workers. I’ve worked in a few corporate environments and this is an extreme.

Pros

Big Name company. Focus on adopting new technologies and practices

Cons

People are stuck with their current roles. Very less chances to move up. Opportunities are very limited. Firing is common in CG for full time. Most of the time people don't know why they have been laid off. If asked during the exit interviews then some goofy answers are provided. Personal relations matter in this organisation ... if you are friend with some Manager or Director then you are safe .... if you are a heads down, mind your own business kind of person then no glory, no appreciation and finally a silent lay off... people who don't work as much but know how to talk in meetings can stay longer... anyone going for Interview then please work on your communication skills...always try to sell your skill sets.. make small wins look big victories...

Good place to work on your retirement savings

Pros

A good place to work if you want to increase your retirement savings.

Cons

The culture isn't as good as it was 10 years ago. Very little advancement from within. Very political. Too much brown-nosing going on at all levels. It's a very "every man for himself" environment.
