Pros

Good benefits, dedicated co-workers, decent pay, and on campus work out facility. Ability to change positions within company when not in hiring freeze.

Cons

Executive leadership cares more about touting their ID&E agenda than improving product quality and taking care of the employees actually doing the work (evidenced by the recent layoffs in April 2023 - few or no upper level management staff were let go). The Company espouses diversity, but then assigns mandatory career goals for all employees. In addition, Company also has a mandatory shut down for about 8 days over Christmas/New Years, but you have to use 3-5 days of PTO to cover the days.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
