Pros

Great Benefits, good compensation. In theory, a well-run process-oriented company. In practice, execs will do ANYTHING to "make the numbers".

Cons

Remember, you can only beat the employees so long before they either die or run away.

Pros

Great with previous leadership. But then...

Cons

New leadership is not as dedicated to employees as previous (although bonuses have been better). New middle management there is a lot of nepotism. Once a stable company, layoffs have been a common occurrence since COVID.
