Pros

Benefits are very generous to incentive turn-over

Cons

Poor communications, very secretive, discourages employee input. Too many requirements and flip-flopping initiatives that aren’t spelled out anywhere. Very hard to get comfortable here even when doing well.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits. You do learn some interesting things about your career.

Cons

Micromanagement of the worst kind. Managers will breathe down your neck, take credit for your accomplishments, and blame you for everything. Work life balance is nonexistent. Working overtime (sometimes by as much as 14 hours) is normal.
