Pros

Good benefits and looks good on a resume.

Cons

Pay is not great. Constant layoffs. Many employees work long hours. The company is constantly acquiring other companies and expecting them to hit aggressive profit margins.

Advice to Management

Stop cutting lower ranks; instead, cut the layers of management down. The company is too top-heavy. Work to provide better work/life balance for your employees instead of having them chained to their computers 24/7.
