Pros

Relative to other companies, SVU's compensation packages are extremely competitive. Additionally, in my experience management was very open to bottom-up ideation, despite the rather hierarchical nature of the organization.

Cons

Extremely and overly consensus-based. Decisions-by-committee, which made the process of enacting any sort of change or action very bogged-down and bureaucratic.
