Pros

Lot's of great people. The company is very attentive to human needs and increasing engagement. Customers are loyal because of the long term relationships and great service. The work-life balance can be great or terrible depending on your boss, but for the most part it is better than competitors.

Cons

Pay doesn't keep up with the market. The company is struggling to move into software and cloud businesses. Lots of organizational churn that marginalizes long time employees.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
