Pluspunten

Lots of exciting work getting done by smart and pleasant people. Good team atmosphere even with teams operating virtually across the globe.

Minpunten

Having joined from a small acquisition, it has been very difficult to get up to speed on what's required to do my job. Getting information about other teams/parts of company to do my work is very difficult. Internal aps and info sources are inscrutable - requiring much time to mine. Even long time veterans don't know much about how to get essential info. Raises were delayed by months this past year and were not retroactive to the beginning of the new evaluation year. Bonuses were very small to nothing for my team, which is a pretty strong one. As in many large companies, some people seem to have very little to do, while others, such as my team, have deliverables and deadlines that wouldn't be possible with 5 X's the number of people. Technology supporting internal processes is flakey and training on it is abysmal.

Pluspunten

Plenty of opportunity to earn well over $100,000.00 with Standby pay and OT. Plus, mileage reimbursement of $.70 a mile.

Minpunten

Sometimes tedious work below what I would consider for an experienced FE such as hard drive destruction bin audits and checking in equipment.

Pluspunten

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Minpunten

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
