Pros

It has a good product portfolio internally developed. Some gap in the late 2010's however, good pipeline there after. Tradition and stable culture.

Cons

Slow decision making process and a lot of bureaucracy and internal politics. Senior managements turn over very quickly result in inconsistent strategy.

Pros

Great benefits (salary, bonus, health), plenty of experiences and training opportunities. Generally a benevolent environment. Really nice facility in Whippany.

Cons

Unless you're willing to relocate or take a lateral, promotion opportunities are limited. It's quite common to be in the same position for five or more years. Competency of management varies from division to division.

Pros

Great work life balance, especially for working parents. My manager and my team were great people to work with and helped me in the initial days and made me feel welcome. There are several internal opportunities available and the HR is very helpful.

Cons

The only con that i can think of is that there are very few events where the team has fun. It might be just the team I worked for, but in the 20 months that I worked here, not even a single team building activity was conducted. That includes no team lunch and no networking events.
