Pros: Great place to work, great benefits. Mostly independent working atmosphere, very conducive to work life balance.
Cons: Implemented crazy performance review system that forced employees into 1 to 5 rating system. Seemed like a throwback to the GE days. Lots of middle managers clawing their way to next level.
