Pros
- Great health insurance - Fantastic retirement plan - Nice, smart people - "They've only had one round of lay-offs in its 75+ year history" - A large majority of the people at CG whom I've met have been there over 5 years - Very stable
Cons
- "They've only had one round of lay-offs in its 75+ year history" - Doing things differently is encouraged until you try to do something differently - There is great hesitation to do something that could be wrong or do something when there's not consensus that it's the right decision - Stifling for anyone who has an entrepreneurial, get-it-done mindset as the consensus-mentality cripples the efficiency to the decision-making process - There is a vast underrepresentation of Millennials who are Associates and not contractors. My assumption is because they leave frustrated with the pace of work. - Management is laden with burdensome tasks that detract them from inspiring their people to be great. Well, I should say mgmt distracts themselves with burdensome tasks rather than truly knowing and investing in their people. - If you're looking for a place to be inspired, feel heard and reach that wonderful place where your and the company's purpose align, then this would not be a good place. If you're looking for a paycheck where you work with pleasant, kind people, this is the perfect place for you.
