Pros

Good compensation package. It's a good place to work if you want a job. Great flxibility and control over you schedule.

Cons

Promotions are based on prefrential bases, you must know a lot of people if you are looking for career advancement. Conflict and contradictions in management makes it extreamly difficult to satisfy cross-functional team and yet performing with excellence. Only upper management is higher from outside and others are promoted within each division only.

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.
