Pros

Trying to stay innovative and competitive, and modernize the organization structure , IT, and the working environment (processes and tools) to move fast and be more agile, responsive, and customer-focused. Efforts to hire more new/younger engineers (millenials) seems to have increased

Cons

Restructuring efforts and relocating headquarters to downtown Chicago is causing management to be more command-and-control, and employees to feel less engaged, and more concerned about looming reductions that keep happening quarter after quarter.

Pros

I highly value the autonomy I am given to manage my own workload, and I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with several of my talented colleagues.

Cons

That independence comes at a cost. The company is incredibly disorganized and siloed. Management will force lateral moves on you without asking; I've ended up balancing four different roles with absolutely no pay increase. Requests for fair compensation compared to the peers I trained were completely ignored. Territories change constantly, but zero training is provided. You are essentially left entirely on your own to figure it out.
