Pros

Steady paycheck, industry standard time off policy matching 401k and healthcare benefits

Cons

Overworked colleagues, endless layoffs causing the remaining employees to pick up the slack, the net result is more overwork and stress and lower quality software. This cycle repeats itself continuously. Here is the illustration of "deceptive". In the last "town hall" meeting the CEO told everyone how great things were going (no mention of layoffs). In the following week there was a meeting with divisional VP's telling everyone layoffs were coming. The devastating (from a resource and morale perspective) layoffs came. Meanwhile everyone is still waiting for merit increases that management promises are coming in July. Of course merit increases won't be retroactive. As usual the executive bonuses are on the backs of regular employees who don't get the giant bonus checks or even fair merit increases. The never ending layoffs, poor pay and executive dishonesty contribute to low morale.

Pros

Great customers, some employees that really care, good benefits, and some cool technologies.

Cons

Exec management changes direction/strategy way too often. Does not give a plan a chance to succeed before changing it again. Always cutting cost everywhere which is getting old. Nepotism is a problem even at exec levels. Benefits are reduced every year. Tons of politics at exec levels.
