Pros

In the 70's and 80's a dynamic place and unlimited development potential. Japan trips, Training, Promotions, (my first year), Lavish Parties, great chow hall, office with a cradenza, and exec desk, and a DOOR, great benefits, pension, all in all a great company in the 70's and 80's.

Cons

ALL of that is gone now. Especially now in Newark. 250 a month to park or train it to work. Ikea workstations, all open environ, even Director level. No privacy, Orwellian atmosphere, speak out and you are "marked", Reorgs and downsizing have left the company weakened. Morale low, oler employees ushered to leave replaced by newbies from Newark all for a 102M tax break.
