Pros

You can find your niche, and if you do a good job, you probably won't have to worry about layoffs.

Depending on the group, the work can be interesting. Since there is stability, you won't encounter the politics and backstabbing that often arise at "hire and fire" companies.

If you are willing to stand out, do above-average work, and show commitment (working late when needed), you will get a raise.

Very liberal with working from home. Above-average insurance benefits.

Cons

401K match is kind of weak.

Paid time off is very below average.

While salary ranges look good, most are paid below the midrange for their grade.

Advice to Management

Be more generous with vacation time and pay raises. At least give everyone a cost of living raise and be more generous with your top performers.
