"I've been here for a year and there doesn't seem to be much opportunity for growth. Currently at an entry level position, there are plenty of women that work hard and are pleasant to work with. Morale can get low and the bureaucracy often gets in the way.
Most of the VPs of the organization and upper management are men, with a few shot-calling women who are pulling for good change. I can't speak to maternity leave here, but other health benefits are robust and vacation time off is as well. I know that child care subsidies are provided, but can't speak to their function.
All in all, the company has been good (not great, not terrible) to work for in this past year. It just doesn't seems like the ceiling is very low."

"Its a company that is constantly restructuring and the people (men or women) who make it to the top are the ones that are in political favor at the moment. If you're looking for a job where you can have good hours, an easy-going culture and/or work-from-home opportunities, seek out a low-profile department doing something mundane and necessary and you will survive and have a good work/life balance."

"The department is going through a lot of structural changes which make it difficult to focus on the specific needs of women in the work place."
