Pros

I had a great manager, and great team. Fun, exciting, and challenging work.

Cons

Little-to-no training opportunities. On-boarding consisted of PPTs and a quiz. There were 2 previous layoffs to mine before office space was consolidated between Minneapolis and Arden Hills. Former Arden Hills campus had 4 office buildings, by the time I was laid off there were only 2 occupied buildings left - the smallest two, with plenty of empty cubicles to go around.

Pros

Flexible work schedule (although telecommuting has been limited for arbitrary reasons) Reasonable salary Good 401k Opportunity to work on new and emerging technologies, gaining skills that are valuable elsewhere.

Cons

Constant in-fighting between business units Top heavy - far too manager managers, not enough worker bees IT organization disjointed with extremely low employee morale Management consistently makes bad decisions without ever consulting the people who will be affected. Communication of these decisions is haphazard and poorly thought out.
