Pros

1. Great work-life balance 2. Generally great people. Colleagues generally respect each other and treat each other nicely 3. Great medical/dental, leave benefits, great environment 4. Very people oriented even when retrenching. Company is really going all-out to make this a less painful process for the employees affected

Cons

1. Too frequent reorganizations, with latest one on co-location causing many good people to leave 2. I've seen some people with very little credentials being promoted up due to this reorg, and some folks with good credentials being downgraded. 3. Pay increment is not great.

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
