Pros

profit-sharing, yearly party, potlucks, and the cafeteria had good cookies for the first ten years.

Cons

racial violence, stalking, managers were not qualified leaders, and bullying was an accepted part of office culture (in fact, people received trophies for bullying), the constant massive lay offs (full disclosure: I survived the layoff and left the company on my own accord).

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
