Pros

Excellent Benefits and Pay!

$1500 a year for getting a physical. You get a yearly bonus based on performance. 3% raise each year, no matter how bad an employee you are. Lots of paid holidays, no, really, I mean it. The most I have ever had. 15 vacation days to start with, and after 2 years you get 20! Even their layoff packages were very generous.

Cons

Cracking down on Work from home. Slow pace. Never challenged. Lots of red tape to implement even the simplest of changes. They over-hire all the time, so layoffs occur every 3-6 years; update your resume constantly. They want cheap labor from college new hires to replace experienced hires.

Advice to Management

Reduce the amount of red tape in the IT realm for changes. Stop overhiring! If you have a number, hit it and see, and do not do layoffs.
