Pros

Remote work from home option supporting execs in domestic USA or global countries. Working in a virtual world.

Cons

Corporate savings since employees responsible for paying for own home/phone; internet; and printer usage sometimes exceeding limits. No pay raises for 10+ years. Many women in management trying to get ahead therefore disrespecting others.

Pros

Work from home, but even that comes with a price.

Cons

Too much management. Most are clueless. Execs in company only care about their stock options and stock price. Employees & employee benefits are used to make their numbers. No education budget for employees.
