Pros

9/80 Schedule, Work Life Balance is truly supported, educational reimbursement, diversity of work and people

Slow and not as efficient as it can be - sometimes run into the "that's the way we've always done it mentality"

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay is okay and the benefits are pretty good. The 9/80 work schedule is nice if you can stick to it. If you are lucky enough to work in one of the remodeled buildings, then the environment is okay for a cube farm.

Cons

Loaded with bureaucratic type nonsense and policies and procedures for everything. Risk aversion coupled with old technology. Cliques and kingdoms, multiple layers of management breathing down your neck at all times, all lead to people that can't, or are too afraid, to think for themselves. Too big to get out of its own way at times. Some managers pressure their people into working extra hours just to meet some ridiculous schedule.
