Cons

- Bad tangible benefits, with bench mark at the 50% quartile. - Less chance to get promotion, which taking a very long path. - Lay back environment will make you sleep. - Job rotations that giving you a higher responsibily with no change of your pay. - Unfairness varies from each department. - Old birds with no contribution can takes their own sweet time to wait for company package (more than 10 years). - ONE IT Services sux, 3 weeks to 2 months to get an user ID created. A simple request need to route few levels to get reply (or totally no reply).

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
