It was fun while it lasted

Pros

The company was very generous with their employees (i.e. benefits, bonuses, cell phone, T&E card). When the times are good, it was nice for the employees.

Cons

Unfortunately times were not always good and the company structure kept changing. I've survived three layoffs in the 7 years I was there, but didn't survive the fourth. At the time, the severance was also generous too.

Pros

Location, low-pressure culture. Nice office building.

Cons

Zero energy from coworkers, no innovation. Bonus standards were raised to the level of unattainability and benefits were slashed with zero explanation or recompense.

Pros

They were quick to hire me - whole process took less than a month

Cons

They promise one thing to get you in the door and deliver another. A dirty company to work with where people don't work but rather gossip, play games and are obsessed with cutting each other's feet off. Pay is also well below company standards. They claim working for a name like Lafarge should be sufficient to pay your bills.
