Pros

Typical pros for a large company like having structured policies and reasonable stability

Cons

The corporate culture here equates long hours with loyalty. Even though it is against Labor Laws, people here are labeled "salaried" employees when they do not meet the legal description. This company has been fined before for such practices, but the same culture and expectations continue. Management expects that you work any amount of overtime necessary to complete the job. If you do not, then it is reflected in your evaluations that you "do not commit the time necessary" to complete your tasks. More responsibilities are given to employees without any additional compensation. I left this company because I was being paid below market while working long hours. Made a lateral move making 20% increase in salary with reasonable hours.

Pros

you will have a flexible schedule most of the year.

Cons

It is difficult to trust the people you work with, as they are incentivised to get you to sign off on things, whether they are done or not.

Pros

Was able to do many different jobs and learn a bunch of different departments.

Cons

Management is out of touch with reality. Used to be a great company to work for and they truly cared about their people. It is so unprofessional, micro managed, too many middle managers and no one can make a decision to save their life. The stress, political bs is overwhelming. They spend a ton of money on creating programs and then never get to the users. Everyone they have a new CTO it is major disruption and they always bad mouth the last person that was in the seat. Then they go back to what was done 10 years ago.
