Pros

Flexible work environment - telecommuting highly encouraged.

Good community involvement - mentoring for underprivileged teens, Habitat for Humanity, etc.

Work-Life balance is a corporate priority.

Customer-facing roles offer great opportunities for advancement.

Cons

If you are not customer-facing, there is limited upward mobility. The corporate services part of the company is very static. You have the opportunity to move up when someone above you leaves.

The company employs almost 400,000 people; however, 95% of that is offshore.

Advice to Management

Make everyone report the hours actually worked and hold managers accountable for excess hours.

Don't ask people to report 40-hour weeks if they're really working 50-60 hours.
