Pros

- Pretty good starting salary - Lots of employee benefits and initiatives, good lunches, organized social events and helpful HR - Good work-life balance, no expectation to work long hours or weekends - Middle management is very open to discussion and feedback - Some talented people trying to improve things

Cons

- Extremely poor IT infrastructure and support, no internet access, the sort of place people still print out their emails - Stifling bureaucracy and heavy hierarchy, takes weeks for simple things to get done - Lack of opportunities for training and advancement - Lots of talk of innovation, but still feels 10 years behind competitors - Very conservative higher management

Worst career decision, stay away

Pros

Healthcare is decent, pretty in line for industry similar with their 401k match, but their provider is not great Compensation is near average, but long term incentive is laughable

Cons

Miserable work culture, long hours, lack of investment in technology, lack of adequate resources. Leadership segregates themselves in a corner of the office, those who speak up against flaws are reprimanded and gaslit that the processes in place are already efficient, hours on end of no value add "work", lack of management which comes from their lack of pedigree and professionalism. Unfortunately I rolled the dice on a smaller company thinking I would have more of a voice and opportunity for career advancement, but found the opposite. Simply, stay away.

Pros

Outstanding respect to human - working conditions, private life etc

Cons

Vertical toxic hierarchy destroys the efficiency in almost all processes. Weak management & leadership approach. An influence of several department heads on GM affects on adequate strategic decisions making process. Forgotten the cost of money. Lack of professionalism and attention to details at top management's level. Kingdom's syndrome. French touch - no development of mind is in place - too much sleepy pleasures delivered to all employee's agenda.
