Pros

This is a very large company - so please realize that the negative & positive reviews are individual experience in a large group of offices. I LOVE my job. This is by far the best experience I've ever had in the professional aspect of my life. Management in the Field Engineering department seem to always be willing to sit down & go over anything you need to discuss, and are very affirming, encouraging and positive. Considering my experience thus far, I hope to be here until retirement.

Cons

Some types of risk reports are generated using a computer program, while others are used strictly in Word format. I believe that it would be much more streamlined & prevent additional delays (such as tedious work trying to make templates work & gather distribution lists in word) if ALL reports and letters were filtered through the same system that is used for the risk reports - separated by the type of report or letter in order to ensure the appropriate timeliness/guidelines.

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
