Pros

A wonderful company for those who want to "retire in place". Benefits are outstanding. Colleagues are very friendly and caring. Salary is competitive.

Cons

People are promoted solely based on personal relationships and not on competence. If you are not part of a certain "network" or willing to pretend that you might join it (certain clubs, certain churches, certain political parties), there is no chance to get any opportunities. Most highly qualified personnel have left for competitors (look at the turnover rate on LinkedIn). If you are good at your job, you will end up doing far more than your fair share of work. (Though if you are not competent, no one will ever fire you) Very bureaucratic. Many peoples' jobs rely on the bureaucracy staying so no one is motivated to make it better.

Pros

Great co-workers and healthy environment. Benefits are amazing. Demands are reasonable.

Cons

I think this is true for many places right now but post-COVID campus has become mostly remote work. You have to organize with your team when you want to have face-to-face interactions.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
