Pros

COVID WFH Means nobody has to go into the office. A lot of money saved on the cost of gas and lunch.

Cons

There are more bosses than workers and an endless cycle of meetings about nothing. This means you waste a lot of time meeting about doing work instead of doing actual work.

Pros

pay and benefits (4% safe harbor election with no match required from the employee).

Cons

This could have been a great professional experience, but the organization, as a whole, has become more profit-driven. That would be ok, but the software/technology infrastructure is based on the agile minimum viable product approach and there are so many issues just trying to get information from the system and doing reporting/analysis. Nothing is stable and it's constantly changing without ever really fixing the underlying data issues.

Pros

Pay and Benefits, work from home flexibility Work with great people internally and with volunteers externally

Cons

Micro-Management and politics Outdated operating systems which are replaced with incomplete system updates that "will be fixed later", and are still broken many years later causing issues for the next system replacement. Ideas are typically ignored unless you are a favorite. I have given my ideas to other favorites after being given to management only to then see them considered. Currently undergoing a digital transformation which has been more of a staff purge(50% of tenured staff of 5 plus years let go) Note: Many of the positive reviews are coming from volunteers. They do reflect how well volunteers are treated. Unfortunately, it does not reflect how the staff are treated at PMI.
