Pros

Good location, easy parking, standard business hours, decent benefits, they say that they are striving to improve morale. Current sales are strong.

Cons

Morale is down, still trying to cut back costs by hiring freezes and doing more with less. decent salary range listed, but they don't pay a high salary with little or no annual raise. HR is in tune with management but not in tune with the employee.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
