Good company, but inconsistent management

Pros

Nice people, beautiful campus, decent benefits

Cons

Very political when it comes to promotions, allow poor performers to remain while overloading good workers with more work. Work life balance depends on particular manager - not consistent throughout company. Somewhat of a class structure with respect to grade levels. Benefits were excellent years back but gradually more & more was taken away. They want a young workforce at the expense of not valuing knowledge, skills or loyalty.

Pros

The company and people are caring and respectful to everyone. Truly global and large in scope. Employees are given some flexibiliy to be creative and management do listen

Cons

The corporate ladder and hierarchy can be extensive. A very large considering in dealing with cost.
