Pros

Flex time and very good knowledgeable people in the trenches.

Cons

This nearly 200 year old company still is trying to figure out what it is going to be when it grows up. Constant shifts in position. "Dynamic" would be a euphemism here. Constant change is counterproductive. Senior management almost seems to want to kill the company. Employees are not valued. Nothing positive ever happens here, if you don't count bonus time for senior management. Bonuses for everyone else miniscule to non-existent. Layoffs and downsizing are routine. The most negative environment and quirkiest senior management I have seen at any of the many companies I have been with.

Constant change, nice people, too fractured with new acquisitions

Pros

Casual environment, flex time, good PTO, most of the people are nice and just want to go in, get the work done and leave at a a reasonable hour. Under the right manager, you could have a good job, but in order to have a great career, you really have to go to another company.

Cons

Fractious. Too many different companies vying to do things their way. Apathy. Many managers feared for their survival and would sabotage underlings in order to not be overshadowed and made obsolete. Year after year of layoffs was trying on those who remained.

Great leadership, excellent environment and leading edge technologies. The people are friendly and there is great potential to learn.

They don't like old people. They rely too much on off-shore workers. Continuous lay-offs. The company is shrinking it's business as they change their product offerings
