Pros

Benefits are great. (PTO, VTO, 401k, Healthcare options don't seem terrible, and if you're lucky enough a pension.) Compensation seems to be fair, from what I for myself, friends and family. Networking and the opportunity of getting to know people has been an awesome experience. Overall I'd say managers and supervisors have been absolutely amazing. Heard the food in the Café is pretty good.

Cons

The interview process...awful, just awful. We were told we'll be doing "less with less" yet here we are years later still doing even more with less. Not having the option or opportunity to at least have a hybrid schedule. Lack of trust with upper management. Lack of transparency, yet it's preached that they are. Things are poorly communicated and implemented.
