Pros

Favorable PTO and volunteer opportunities, nice campus in Appleton but it is 80 percent empty and is depressing to work in the office. Not really a positive work environment.

Cons

Underpaid positions, cutting corners and hiring outside temporary workers and employees overseas. Uncaring egotistical managers. Favoritism with just a very few select employees. Recently two executive level employees have left the company and the company also recently laid off 75 employees and possibly more in the future. Work is not getting done even with remaining employees working UNPAID mandatory overtime. Just to maintain staff the company is paying $$$ to some employees with a retention bonus to keep them from leaving. They also hired more workers overseas and more outside temporary employees and are still not keeping up with the work load. This is a company on the decline which is visible by several experienced employees leaving the company in the last year and by management recently laying off employees. Clearly this company is heading in the wrong direction.
