Typical large corporation treatment

Pros

They have been unable to revert to non-work from home staffing. Good 401k benefits.

Cons

Employees are just numbers. They promote lots of fluffy, good corporate efforts but it’s all about the bottom line. Headquarters has moved to Ireland to avoid most US taxes. All major employee decisions are handled behind closed doors with little to no transparency. No company stock options for non-executives.
