Pros

Stable company- no layoffs Generous vacation package shorter hours in comparison to competitors

Cons

Lower starting salary but expected to do the job of three people. Extremely low morale, no sense of team work every man for himself. If you are a hard worker you will not receive any more of a raise than someone who is lazy. People are not polite not friendly and will smile in your face while stabbing you in the back the minute you walk away. Talking is discouraged while gossip is encouraged even by management. This is an old company with old 80's style management and people who need to retire because they are miserable. If culture is important to you STAY AWAY

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
