Pros

Great work/life balance. Management supports advanced education and the company has a tuition reimbursement program. Above average medical and retirement benefits. Generally, friendly work environment.

Cons

Slow career advancement due to management not being required to move around the company. Leadership is tight with budgets and rarely invest in new software/technology. Not a lot of structured on-boarding training for new employees.

Pros

The people who are left are lovely

Cons

You are expected to perform outside your job description. Promotions are nearly impossible. Layoffs are now part of the culture. The "pink bubble" only applies to you when they need you. Once they declare you disposable, their attitude towards you drastically changes. When you get laid off, their package is pittance.
