Pros

Benefits are good, paid holidays

Cons

The company talks a lot about valuing diversity, enabling females, and striving to do the right thing. However, it's latest round of layoffs, driven by a reactive and out of touch leadership team, picked employees who were not favorites or well connected to those in power, citing "redundancy" as its reasons, but sparing many others who are high earners not who add limited value to the organization. They also did their layoffs a week before Thanksgiving, and the amount of people selected was so inconsequential to the company's bottom line, it felt like a senseless massacre of the self-esteem of the dedicated employees they chose to eliminate.

Pros

Business doing much better now. More budget available

Cons

Too many women have been pushed out over recent years; influence continues to sit within a tight male-dominated circle. In redundancy periods, female employees often appear more vulnerable.
