Pros
-Lots of caring, competent people doing their best, and still wanting to improve. -Free parking (and lots of it) -Satisfactory work-life balance -On-site gym and fitness programs
Cons
-Poor employee morale. -Few people of colour, women, or people under 50 in leadership positions. Layoffs also tend to impact these demographics more than white men. -Vacation time is minimal. -Top-heavy -Disfunctional executive management that: *is tone-deaf *is afraid of change *is unable to implement changes beyond layoffs, management restructure, or hiring consultants *micromanages *says one thing then do another *ignores feedback from middle-management *doesn't communicate *clearly has no plan for recovery *is penny wise, pound foolish -Raises/bonuses are extremely rare, even with stellar employee reviews and increased responsibility over time. We're talking two raises in 11 years, one of which was a cost of living increase. They've stopped doing reviews for precisely this reason.
