Great pay, but concerning outlook

Pros

Great comp plan (although healthcare benefits could be better).

Cons

Lip service from leadership with no real action. Promoting the wrong leadership. Turning the company into a no-value reseller. Service capabilities dwindling. Poor support from executive team. Concerning financial position. Terrible work-life balance. So many layoffs, that everyone is overworked, burnt out, and edgy.
