Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current

Lots of smart people, but demotivated by a finance-driven controlling corporate culture
Pros: Smart people. Opportunity to work on interesting technologies. Generally good relationship between people. Good training for managers.
Cons: Bureaucracy driven from the top by finance and risk aversion, with no consideration for human factors. Large amount of control and reporting. Slow decision process. Results in low morale, low productivity and inability to innovate.
