Good, stable employment but can be boring

Pros

Good, stable employment. Pays well. People are very nice and friendly. Clean campus. Management values people.

Cons

Not much accountability. People are either overworked and burnt out trying to carry entire programs on their backs or doing the bare minimum. Departments feel very siloed. Not as much responsibility or empowerment that I had at previous companies. I don’t get as much fulfillment here. Seems like it would be hard to advance career up through management.
