Pros

Solid benefit package and competitive salaries. Group level (very senior) management is very good and generally responsive to all level of employees. Good employee recognition at higher levels. Knowledgeable, professional co-workers with a strong sense of corporate identity.

Cons

Economic challenges globally have tested the company's "employee friendly" reputation. Production goals have replaced bottom line thinking and the "fresh.thinking" campaign has devolved into trying to maintain market share and revenue levels. Understandable given the state of the economy but a departure from the past and a challenge for both the company and its employees. More experienced workers should watch their backs.

Pros

Work from home, 401k match up to 6% (plus they contribute a separate amount each year), HSA employer contributions

Cons

Work heavily depends on your manager and team. I have had many managers since I started and the culture has shifted from a small, specialty company, to more of a large corporate structure. It used to be very flat and you felt connected to upper management, now it feels more like a firm hierarchy that you have little understanding with.
