Pros

Company has a strong mission with lots of potential. Was at one time a great place to work...

Cons

Some of the business leaders are incompetent and are only able to stay in their positions because they are very skilled at deflecting blame onto their subordinates and are not held accountable by senior leadership. Also another big problem is legacy employees with no skills have been promoted to leadership positions and have no business being there. In general there needs to be more accountability for the senior leaders and changes made to put people with skills and talent in those roles.

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.
