Pros

EPM has a lot of scope to know new things and to gain knowledge. The security and trust the company infuses to its employees is valuable. One should work here at least once in their career.

Cons

There are very few cons, one of them being the night shifts. It disturbs your personal life and health, although you get extra money during night shifts this once aspect that i did not enjoy much.

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
