Pros

Good healthcare benefits, 401K contributions. Bonuses are better than most companies if you perform well. For full time employees, good time off and sick time off. Friendly and inclusive coworkers. Tuition reimbursements. Good for those who wish to not grow much in their career.

Cons

Managers doesn't seem motivated to develop employees for career advancement; no matter if you recently receive your STEM grad degree or not, if you are a high performer or not. So many talented people I saw during my time here that expressed to their direct report in hopes of career advancement, filled out their career advancement forms and lead to nowhere. Like many, I applied to advancement positions internally first then after many rejections, applied externally to receive many offers from same title I applied internally for.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
