Pros

Great benefits, good solid people.

Cons

You're just a number. It doesn't matter what your latest accomplishments are; if your tenure is past 15 years, you're a candidate for a resource action.

Advice to Management

Get back to basics. Chasing the dollar is one thing, but remember the people that propelled the company to success. I'm not talking about upper management; I'm talking about the cogs in the wheel, the people out in the field that bring in business. Keep people with skills, regardless of their tenure.
