Pros

- Pay is excellent - + 4 hours Paid time off every two weeks - 40 hours unplanned time off per year - clean, modern, well kept facility throughout. - some departments are perfect for introverted workers -Good plans for benefits ( paid tuition (if your major correlates to your job) after a year, paid maternal + paternal leave, paid military leave.

Cons

-food selection during night shift does not come close to food selection during day shift. -No pay during lunch plus the cafeteria profits off the workers. Even more so after they raised prices a year ago. -You may get lucky with your team and group lead, but it seems they all get constant complaints for weird reasons from upper management. Some group leads take it out on their team members. Some don't, so be wary of this and if you notice ask for department transfer asap.

Pros

Employees share a strong sense of commitment to the mission and are generally high quality. The products are not perfect, but they are excellent and improving.

Cons

Decision making processes are immature and/or non-existent. Decisions are made top-down, often based on long standing personal networks, not merit and analysis. Organizational politics and doing things based on how they will appear, not how they impact the business, are prevalent.
