Pros

Location, compensation, SOME friendly people

Cons

From day 1, I felt like I was in an alternate reality. Horribly rigid and hostile environment. People constantly whispering to each other. Company is hard-coded in the past. Even an HR rep told me "the company is operated as if it is 1980 but the Senior Executives buy into it, so don't expect it to change ". Cannot count how many times I heard the words, "oh he/she is no longer here"... Hmmm I wonder why!! They say they want fresh ideas and perspectives, but they will not listen to a non-executive. Happier to be unemployed than work 1 more day there.
