Pros

The rare moments when you meet with some amazing folks who recently joined the company and wanting to do great things.

Cons

Seeing the light going out in people's eyes as they are slowly destroyed by " our unique culture." It is a culture that is risk averse, reactive, fear based, extremely political and unable to innovate internally. The sotck performance and Wall Street's comments are echoing the same sentimemts.

Pros

-The only pros are the amazing benefits - probably the best 401K I've seen as well as the highly competitive salaries.

Cons

-Lack of culture is a growing and rampant issue - there is a very high level of favoritism -Micromanagement from senior leadership - instances occuered where they essentially forced an employee to resign and not directly fire him/her just so that they wouldn't have to pay severence package, etc. Managers want to just make themselves look good and make it clear that your only job is to acf as if they are God's gift to this messed up planet. -Lack of proper communication and frequent unnecessary team meetings held which are a waste of time and do not accomplish any desirable results.
