Pros
Most people are nice and the company encourages everyone to work hard. The building is well maintained and the office is always clean. Coworkers are very helpful when you need help. Benefits are average, but they go up significantly every year. You get 401k, paid time off, free life, etc...The schedule can also be flexible depending on your dept. They also hire consultants for everything, so they can hide behind their consultants for all the cost cutting tactics.
Cons
Management lacks education. Most people in management have been with the company since the late 80's and early 90's, who worked their way up without attaining new education and training while they are there, so they are slow to adjust to technology. A lot of things management does that is big news are usually something you've seen or have done two years ago. Job satisfaction varies greatly by the department and who your manager is. The older managers who have been doing the same thing over and over for the past 20 years will usually be more difficult to work with. They don't like change and they don't like to take responsibility for their mistakes. They will usually blame the subordinate who has a more advance and current education and use their seniority to influence other managers. Turnover is very high in departments with an aging management staff. Nobody wants to work with a bully dinosaur manager, who blames their subordinate for everything and sets them up for failure. These dinosaur managers behave this way to protect themselves from being replaced by the much more qualified and educated subordinate. High turnovers will keep fresh meat and knowledge coming their way and they keep new hires around long enough just to get work done for them before playing the blame game. There is a manager at Demco who is known for a turnover every 10 months, which is after the review period. On the other hand, departments with newer management staff are more pleasant to work in and they have more department parties. These type of managers usually give better reviews and try to provide the best feedback to subordinates to encourage them.
