Pros

Lots of talented people and a good work environment. In my work group I have had the opportunity to advance and be well compensated for my work. I am well respected and have a good future ahead.

Cons

The pain from the layoffs are still being felt. Management at the Durham site did a very poor job in managing the layoffs. Too many people were left in the dark and the lack of transparency has given many employees no trust in the site, particularly VBF Operations.

Pros

Great benefits and high salary, a lot of room for growth.

Cons

Experience depends highly on your manager and department. I worked my butt off and had an awful manager in a toxic department, but now I have an amazing manager in a much calmer department.
