Pros

The benefits package is excellent

Cons

Upper management runs the business as if they are the popular kids in school picking their favorites for certain positions while the business is failing In so many areas yet they just keep calling it "realigning the business". There has been a mass exit of many people with tenure. lower management who actually sees the issues and talks to their team to see what changes could actually help the business are pushed against a wall and not allowed to make change, and if they do their job as in corrective action or write ups for those coworkers who are in subordinate or braking policy, then the team lead is generally put in a position where they are forced to quit or fired.
