Pros

Name recognition? lol. Seriously, this 140+ year old DUSTY company is a trap. They lured me in and poached me from a high paying startup up job on promises of an exciting AI product that never materialized. What were you thinking hiring people when your product was non existent and no commitment to it?

Cons

Where do I even start? For such a large company, their internal systems are a mess. I’ve been waiting two months for credit card reimbursements in the thousands —ridiculous! They rake in huge profits from their 5G radios, but try to appear 'innovative' with flashy demo videos showcasing emerging tech they do not produce or own, just puff. Unfortunately, I fell for it, only to be laid off along with my entire team after just five months. I cant believe I was this naive to fall for the big name. The demo they showed me of their AI product was pure fantasy compared to their actual product, which felt more like the Titanic theme played on a cheap recorder. What feels most reckless and straight up savage about these people is that their recruiters and hiring managers will straight up lie to you to get you to come over but when you get there you see how bad it is. Don't fall for it. One of the biggest mistakes of my life.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
