Pros

Good benefits, upward mobility, casual environment. Summer Fridays.

Cons

It was a great company to work at in the 2000s but it has really declined in the past 7 years due to mismanagement. Managers can be clueless or like to blame everyone else but themselves. Pay hasn't kept up with the industry, and rumors of layoffs every month have kept morale down.

Pros

Good benefits, overall great company feel, especially for a big corporation.

Cons

The department I was in was completely dysfunctional. Rampant gas-lighting. Lots of unpaid overtime. Verbal degradation from manager. Frankly, it verged on abuse.
