Pros

You'll learn valuable skills, they treat you fairly, work life balance is good depending on which team you are on

Cons

The pay is below market. They have one to two layoffs per year to restructure the organization. Morale sometimes takes a hit.

Pros

Great mid level and lower executive management teams while I was there. Smart people who want to achieve results but all kowtow to the CEO's whims

Cons

No one wants to work for or with the CEO. He seems to hear only what he wants to hear and his pulse on the industry is, imo, significantly off. The strategy is outdated and out of touch with reality. So much good money was thrown after bad that it's comical and should be an embarrassment.

Pros

The people are passionate, hardworking and believe the company will turn around. They are very resourceful and do good work with few resources they're given.

Cons

On average there's a 2% annual salary increase, morale is low and while the corporate strategy is planned, the tactical implementation is dependent upon the CEO's whims.
