Pros

only the benefits and the pay was exceptional for the amount of work you were doing.

Cons

I worked for Philips respironics, and they had a good boss, and then they got a new boss, the new boss was very unexperienced and he treated everyone like slaves. BEWARE.

Pros

Competitive pay for industry, above average benefits and perks. Allowed to work from home. First level management was supportive.

Cons

Very poor work/life management. Gross waste of funding due management power plays which had intolerable negative impact on line employees and the accounts they were assigned to.
