Pros

Great, stable company. Good people. Decent medical benefits. Great work-life balance. Family-friendly company. Very nice office.

Cons

Some of the perks are not readily available if you don't work in SoCal or Florida.

Politics can be tricky.

Reorganization has led to a lot of the best people leaving due to the chaos and culture clashes.

Advice to Management

Better define boundaries between departments and roles in the new organizational structure. The reorg was lengthy and not well thought out.

Get your technology mindset out of the 1990s. The days of large-scale outsourcing are over when technology has become core to your business.

Put more focus on serving your internal customers better. The "take it or leave it" approach isn't what's in the best interest of the company. Customers should be pushed to the cloud because it makes business sense, not because it has become too difficult to do business with your own company.
