Pros

Money, Peers usually make it a good environment

Cons

Ethical issues, lack of management concern for subordinates, management has a fake concern for you, often requests feedback, but information provided is either sensored, or employees are retaliated against for telling the reality, laid off 900 employees 2 weeks before Christmas with less than 1 month notice for most for the only purpose of making profits look better to shareholders, oftentimes those laid off were politically motivated. Reality is this company is not concerned about saving money internally, they are only concerned about public perception. They have no problem sticking it to the rate payers. Our facility was instructed to cut $18 million out of our budget, next year the CEO gets an $18 million bonus.

Pros

Family type of environment. Great company, stable, and unlikely you'll get let go unless you really mess up badly. Highly recommend.

Cons

Most senior level leadership has long tenure with company. You will not advance in this company at a fast rate at all unless you are a diversity candidate and a senior level executive is looking out for you. Very easy to go sideways in your career, but difficult to go vertical.
