Pros

Flexibility with Paid Time Off

Cons

After a 35 year career at Motorola, it is disgusting to say the least how all of the benefits promised to retirees during their tenure have virtually disappeared. "We take care of our retirees" was once the mantra of the founders of this once phenomenal corporation. Unfortunately, corporate greed has won and those who devoted their careers to Motorola have found themselves on the losing end. Frozen pensions in 2007, offloading pension obligation to an insurance company, and minimal contributions to health care as of 2016 with further reductions to come in 2017. $3500 per family towards yearly health care expenses...really? These are not the values of the company founded by the Galvin family who valued their employees. Shame on you, Motorola.

Pros

I highly value the autonomy I am given to manage my own workload, and I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with several of my talented colleagues.

Cons

That independence comes at a cost. The company is incredibly disorganized and siloed. Management will force lateral moves on you without asking; I've ended up balancing four different roles with absolutely no pay increase. Requests for fair compensation compared to the peers I trained were completely ignored. Territories change constantly, but zero training is provided. You are essentially left entirely on your own to figure it out.
