Vantaggi
Economically stable. Pockets of really great people.
Svantaggi
Senior leadership stagnated for 20+ years, culturally, technologically, and creatively. Temper tantrums across the senior leadership contribute to a culture of secrecy or 'don't let Dad know' policies. They burnt through three good visualization people in four years under the leadership of a guy with no portfolio and no expertise. Comments about the marketing department on Glassdoor are well founded. They also burnt through two good people from the same position in the same year. Everyone responsible was promoted two years later. It's a bastion of old school corporate white guy entitlement. Other Glassdoor comments about the architecture management are completely valid. There's a sore lack of integrity. It's unfortunate because there are so many good people there who deserve so much better. The employee retention for the under 40 crowd is dismal. SMMA typically understaffs and underpays.
