Pros

High level of ethics in the company. Develops products that make our life safer. Nice salary levels. Lots of technical challenges. Opportunities for growth.

Cons

Not nimble yet. Levels of bureaucracy. From a certain level a lot of politics involved (but I guess its common for companies of such size).

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.
