Pros

Pay was really good, had (operative word) work from home opportunity, colleagues usually were great, benefits, retirement plan

Cons

Several members of management not on the same page, work from home opportunities were removed even though It is statistically cheaper to keep employees working from home Instead of in a brick facility. Employees from the United States were made to go back to work from office or to be let go while our counterparts in the Philippines were still remote workers and remain to this day, management is backward thinking, Supervisors have meetings to get employees to quit rather than be fired so that attrition can remain low cost.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
