Pros

The positive is working for a company with a long history and well know name in the testing industry. Most people are willing to speak to you because of their reputation.

Cons

The management at UL is atrocious especially in S&A. Most of the top managers left UL and were replaced by folks who have no idea how to manage. Bullying was the norm and when this was reported to HR, their response was to find a new job. Most of their top PM's, engineers, and sales staff have left the company.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
