Pros
  • Good vacation benefits: 3 weeks, 4 weeks after 10 years, 5 weeks after 15 years.
  • Excellent access to training programs and online training.
  • Discount program for staff with Apple, Dell, and car manufacturers.
  • They will match 100% of pay invested in the group benefits program, up to 6%.
Cons

Cheap on the benefits. Vision is $200 every two years. Medications are only partially covered. A new startup has way better benefits.

Stock purchase plan is cheap, the discount is pathetic. Again, a new startup that goes IPO gives a much better discount to their staff.

For such a large company, you would expect the benefits to be better. It's pretty pathetic.

Raises are below what one would expect, and it's clear that they don't value keeping staff if this is the taste of things to come.

Advice to Management

Learn to reward your staff, and they will remain loyal to you.
