Pros

Flexible schedule with adequate vacation and sick time. Compensation is fair to good. Meets most people's expectations. Overall happy !

Cons

Open ended contract and currently up for negotiation. Do not know if we are to be resigned. A little scary since I have not been in this situation before.

Pros

The benefits are decent, the work isn't too demanding, and the pay is not too shabby for the area. Management makes honest efforts to support employee morale and to recognize good performers. The work/life balance is not much of an issue.

Cons

The benefits aren't exceptionally great, the process around software development is stultifying, and the multiple layers of management are baffling. Perhaps this is normal for large companies, but I've never before had four direct managers. Coming from a startup (we were acquired by JCI), it has been disheartening to say the least to watch our productivity plummet in the face of the added process and management demands on our time.

Pros

A great place to plan to retire from. Opportunities in many areas and generous subsidies for good performers. Highly recommended.

Cons

Watch out for corporate climbers. This is a good company to stay with so some people try to stick around who do not do good work themselves by laying claim to good work done by others. Long as you watch your back you will be fine.
