Pros

Great benefits, very family-friendly, flexible scheduling, kinda cool to be in the building when news is breaking, or election cycles, or even sporting events, running into personalities, just a small, but cool employee perk; managers are well-trained and well-versed; plenty of resources available when answers are needed; pretty collaborative environment; people are, for the most part, very friendly and easy to work with across all areas of the company; office culture depends on the periods, or on the specific days, but mostly relaxed and informal; people are approachable; dress code is mostly professional, but also relaxed; the Turner 2020 project produced robust severance packages, which will assist the affected employees substantially as they try to continue their careers, or even retire; kudos to the company for doing that much for the affected

Cons

There's been very little investment in improving career advancement paths. It even appears to be gone the other way. You rarely hear of anyone getting promoted anymore, as it occurred in the past. People leave departments or the company entirely to advance. Salary was and remains below industry and local standards. Bonuses have been pretty stagnant for the past few years, and we're wondering whether they will also be a casualty. Many of the employee benefits and perks have dwindled away over the years, and it appears that more will be sacrificed in light of the 2020 project. Morale has been down since Turner 2020 has been announced, and even worse over the past 2 weeks, as every employee's employment status was left in limbo. The employees who survived are pretty shaken and really don't know when their turn will be next. Unsure of the leadership right now.

Pros

In office snacks, 3 day a week in office, summer Fridays and week off between Christmas and New Year's.

Cons

Layoffs upon layoffs, and job security at an all time low. 9 hour work day with 1 hour for lunch. No 9-5 here.
