      Pros

      Upper level management looking out for each other at the cost of employees. Great if you are a VP or higher.

      Cons

      New CEO is the worst. Since taking over a little over 5 years ago. He has sold off most of the company and has laid off over 11,000 people. The latest layoffs happen this month which was 4,000.

      Pros

      From home and relaxed working environment

      Cons

      They never know when the project will end or start so you can’t line up other work. Projected end 16th and we end 10 days early? Thats a lot of wages now I don’t have.
