Pros

Nice onsite Cafeteria with variety of food options.

Cons

Many to mention: Senior Management are very distant from the reality of the Operations. Many back stabbing scenarios to list. Employee Morales are very down. No proper planning. Every End-of-quarter is a nightmare to go thru quarter after quarter. Job security is non-existent. Most employees are either looking for work elsewhere, or just have couple of years for retirement so they don't care. The only way to have your voice heard (temporarily) is by showing upper management a job offer from another company and giving the company a notice.

Pros

Good experience with my boss and management, lots of freedom in managing daily tasks and responsibilities, and various opportunities for skill growth and problem solving. Helpful HR team, excellent benefits, and excellent coworkers.

Cons

IT Service Desk did not provide access to me for critical programs for several weeks. Since MKS is a matrix organization, certain functions and responsibilities spill into different departments. Other departments may have other issues.
