Started out great but went downhill.

Pros

They had good benefits and generous training allowances. On site gyms are a nice perk. Some managers permitted working from home and flexible hours.

Cons

I only had one professional manager in the 15+ years I was there and he was moved to a non-management position. I didn't receive my 15% bonus one year because I "missed meetings", although no one could tell me what meetings I missed! HR felt that was OK. That was the same year my stepson was dying from cancer, my stepdaughter was getting married, and I wasn't permitted to take any vacation time. Fortunately that manager left. When I retired, I was the only one that showed up for my exit interview, although it had been requested by HR.

Pros

Good Benefits. Used to also pay well and have good work life balance but not anymore

Cons

Toxic leadership loves to condescend to employees. Want you to do more with less every year. Mandated RTO to facilities that are falling apart and lacking basic office supplies

Horrible racist company

Pros

Great pay, amazing benefits, lots of good people. Employees care management does not

Cons

They do not care about you. You are simply a work horse and just a number. 20 years on the job never once had one issue and they fire you. They are racist. Getting fired for doing way less than other races have done. The same thing multiple people have done and are still there.
