Pros

Good coworkers, decent benefits. Interesting work happening in some parts of the company.

Cons

By the time I left, I felt a bit like a piece of flotsam being tossed about by the waves. The company has increased a lot in size in the last few years through acquisitions and mergers. That, combined with significant changes in directions and occasional reorganizations when upper management turns over, can leave teams on the ground feeling directionless or like working toward any goal is a futile effort. It was pretty dispiriting.

Resources and access to good studies to be successful in research, immediate PTO benefits, 401k match.

Growth opportunities/compensation - besides the annual merit raises of <3 percent I haven’t gotten a raise in 5 years.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
