Pros

Met some genuine people willing to collaborate.

Cons

Massive layoffs to placate stock holders. Back stabbing management; use surprise tactics during performance evaluations. Concentrate way too much on political correctness and much less on running the business effectively.

Pros

Great pay, that is it.

Cons

Very political. If management would realize root cause of issues instead of finding ways to blame others, it would benefit greatly.
