Pros

Good Benefits Employees easy to work with Excellent Pay Safety number one priority. Advancement very good if you are a relative of someone in upper management

Cons

Upper management hire children and relatives that don't have a clue of how to supervise personnel or know anything about the business. Middle management don't listen to employees that have an opinion and if you do you're considered a trouble maker. Most Middle Management employees never came up thru the ranks on how the business is ran. A lot of prejudice in middle management when Obama took Office. Took it out on Black employees.

Pros

Had a great initial leader and team environment. Good information flow and was encouraged to think beyond my current job or discipline. Very good benefits. Very good pay. Was able to learn a great deal about the company and industry and also allowed to take some risks and initiative, in my first two years.

Cons

Line of sight was cut off to other business units, and information slowed. The senior leaders of the company don't live the values. In every meeting with our most senior leader he never asked me how my work environment was and whether my leader was doing a good job. I would have said my work environment was toxic but my leader was doing best job possible - needed more support. Promotions are hard to come by and people slack off in their positions and let those below them do the real work.

Pros

Worked there for 5 years pay was good, overall good company meaning IT.

Cons

like all major corporation they seek to cut cost in the wrong area's. VP's that don't understand what IT means to their organization. Seem to want to cut the little guy's and outsource jobs to India what a shame. They just keep promoting the VP's and creating new VP positions.
