Pros

The salary and benefits were very competitive. The vacation time/paid time-off was excellent. My immediate manager and his boss both fought for their people instead of for themselves. Reuters was a large company, and I was at the lower levels where I was shielded from a lot of the politics.

Cons

Software development at Reuters was a complete mess. Too many products were being developed in too many places, which eventually led to lots of layoffs. The entire company seemed very disjointed. When people were laid off, there was no thought given to performance, only to geographical location.

Pros

Good pay, good managers, and minimal micromanagement

Cons

Not great 401k or health insurance options for contractors, but that's par for the course

Pros

Plenty of wonderful benefits and the most competitive parental leave I have found in the US job market

Cons

Depending on the organization you work within, you could be working for leadership that expects sales reps to smooth over and fix every single mistake that is made. A lot of these mistakes are because they haven't yet recovered from acquiring new companies and they haven't absorbed CRMs and data correctly. There are many different teams to work with to get the simplest projects done. It feels like the companies values are really in place because they expect the employees to take responsibility for their lack of systems in place supporting them.
