Pros

Good benefits. Opportunity to move around due to size of the company. Not a lot of effort expected from employees, average performance is tolerated and often promoted.

Cons

HR transformation has reduced opportunities for strategic business partners, leading to talent leaving the company after many years. HR managers are selected based on connections rather than leadership skills. Company lacks true diversity which can be seen in org charts and predominantly male leadership promoted through good ol boy network. Slow moving and bureaucratic.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
