Vantaggi
Hughes work/life balance is pretty exceptional. It has to be the most lax place I have ever worked, casual atmosphere, few people keep strict tabs, etc. If your child gets ill or needs to be picked up, no problem, "See you when I see you, or Go take care of business", whch does count for a lot. In addition, benefits are better than many I have seen, although have been pared down as of late.
Svantaggi
There appears to be absolutley no interest in the employee from middle (perhaps Sr.) Management in developing an employee's career. The same can be said with regard to HR for employees in general. Professional development is effectively a pipe dream. Whatever spot you may come in to fill, you are destined to remain there seemingly for eternity, no matter your professional merits. You are more or less a slot filler, and treated as such. There are quite a few "maintainers" who work here, knowing full well their careers are not & will not go anywhere. These folks are however, seemingly content because of the lax environment and relative freedom the environmernt provides. Middle Managment is a complete and total joke.
