Pros

You get paid well. They pay for your bus/train pass. You get a pretty good schedule, and the job isn't too stressful.

Cons

You get paid well, but you do put up with a lot of stuff that really wouldn't fly other places. Your career advancement is based on who likes you. Period. If you make the wrong enemy, you are done and may as well find another place to work. HR doesn't respond well to issues in the workplace. Things that are supposed to stay confidential may not. I know if one instance where an HR person was asked to keep the person's name confidential who had complained. And she didn't. Also, incompetence doesn't mean you'll lose your job. It may mean you get promoted. Seriously.

Pros

The bonuses and CSRP of 15% as well as many benefits are unmatched. I enjoy many of my colleagues and have made life long friends.

Cons

It was a great place to work and many will continue to feel that way until they are affected like those of us in the Norfolk Virginia office. There is no loyalty from the company and people are replaced either by a “vision“ of technology that doesn’t yet even exist within the organization or by cheap labor “offshore“. I thought I would retire from here and now I find myself out of a job after over 20 years before the end of 2027.
