Pros

The work is usually challenging, and always very technical. Most people are smart and skilled. Personal relationships are good. Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Management seems more focused on saving money than making it. It has little appetite for risk and for doing new things. HR has introduced an endless list of soft-skill training, when people asked for training that will help them advance their careers. What engineers wanted was technical training, not training in how to handle cultural diversity... It looks like someone at the top is completely disconnected from the engineers. Work-life balance is non-existent. it's work-work.

High pressure with occasional work-life balance challenges
