Pros

Good people and friendly environment. The pace of work is not super high pace. The products are high value/quality vs quantity.

Cons

Holidays reduced, pay freezes, restructuring of benefits, and now work from home is becoming non existent. 4 days mandatory in office for "togetherness" is not going to help the company as its very unpopular with employees. Have lost a lot of good talent due to dwindling benefits and corporate continues to ask for more while giving less back. The pay structure isn't very competitive.

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
