Pros

Liked working from home 2 to 3 days a week. Got more work done as open office space was very distracting.

Cons

Poor managers. My experience with two managers one gave little feedback and showed no interest in my development, the second had little people management experience and was an outright bully. I received little respect for the knowledge and prior industry experience. High stress environment with loads of overtime working on regulatory consent order. I was given key role on project but had no support, recognition and had to deal with an inexperienced poor manager. Benefits are okay but I left for better pay and benefits. More men in senior manager and higher roles and no real initiatives to support women.
