Pros

Integrity of executive leadership People Service Profit culture and respect of persons Some working flexibility

Cons

Very difficult to advance and grow, many people are frustrated. Structure internal interview process favors those who learn the process over merit and ability. Little incentive to move laterally results in in-breeding in many - not all - departments. Push to broaden management span has decreased management opportunities. Executive leadership has had a history of putting profit above people while stating the opposite. Promised bonus has not been paid at 100% for over ten years. No visibility into the bonus process despite the CFO's video communications, which only results in further questions. People Service Profit culture is lip service with many vps, directors, and managers. Remote working opportunities have been restricted. Many aspects of the culture and working environment are stuck in the 80s and 90s, Nepotism - the chairman's son started at a hard-to-get principal position and is the fastest-rising executive with apparently no competition for positions.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
