Merger Made it Worse

Pros

Great hours, no long nights or required overtime. Some high profile books to work on. Really flexible with kids and working from home as needed.

Cons

Too many changes with the merger that forced employees into totally different roles. Changed your job function without any consultation.

It can be bureaucratic because it's so large.
