Pros

Nothing positive to think of.

Cons

Good ole' Iowa boys' club. Company uses a mandatory negative ranking policy: 15% of any group get rated "below expectations," their bonuses get rerouted to the top 15%. Guess where you're gonna end up if not from Iowa and not sucking up to management?

Pros

You get paid at least

Cons

Every year benefits get reduced. Benefit cost goes up. They cut sick time and dependent care time in half since 2022 They ignore disability accommodation requests for as long as possible until they can't avoid legal repercussions Management of my group is/was done by someone with no experience nor ability. They have 'pay bands' that some groups are put in a place where promotion is impossible because you're "not high enough payband" (but if you were an outside applicant you would qualify) They actively treat outside applicants better than internal and will disqualify internal candidates from even being considered for an open position. They often refuse to provide ergonomic equipment even with doctor notes/documentation They ignore and regularly break the law when it comes to FMLA leave They actively discourage discussion about pay (to the point of almost illegally pushing down on anyone discussing pay) There is a lot more to be said, but it's likely this will be removed after collins pays to have it removed. I'll gladly provide proof of all these things since I had years of harassment and discrimination used against me.

Pros

genuinely delicious food in the cafeteria every day (and plenty of options to choose from, and different every day!). Was never expected to work on weekends or past my typical 9-5 (which was nicely flexible as well), although I know this is very much NOT the case for team leads.

Cons

lied about allowing remote/hybrid to both existing employees and new hires, and then started making up issues with whole swaths of employees so that they could then demand they come into the office full time so management could "keep an eye on them." Very bad micromanaging, can't have a second of downtime type stuff (exactly why I want to work from home). They did a massive hiring wave and then a big layoff only a couple of months later, rather than just hiring qualified staff (or paying enough to get them). Big problem with diversity, lots of white men, and it gets worse the higher up the ladder you look.
