Pros

They really give you opportunities to shine. They look for an attitude that comes to the table with ideas. The pay is good, better than most in the industry. No pension, as with most these days, good match on 401k, yearly bonus, PPO healthcare, standard medical leaves and costs are industry standard.

Cons

If you are an exempt employee, the hours can be grueling. Single parents beware. Work life balance was not a priority. It was actually said to me directly from my supervisor that it did not matter my hours, I worked until the task was done. Would not have an issue normally, but I was required to answer international calls at 1am, yet be in my desk by 8am with a 2yo child I had to take to daycare as well. I slept 4 hrs a day at best and worked weekends.

Pros

For the most part, I did not have to bring work home with me. Compensation was good. Benefits are on par with other corporations in the area, although they have been slowly eroding them.

Cons

Company still very siloed between the various business units. Middle and upper management do not work well with each other, and their strategy is not as clear as it could be. A lot of formerly in-house services have been outsourced, which has slowed down what were routine processes. Micromanagement seems to be on the rise.
