Pros

When allowed, you really can change peoples lives.

Cons

Company only cares about bottom line and executive salaries. It is about who you know, who likes you, and not what you bring to the company.

Pros

Tuition reimbursement is very beneficial. Overall pay and benefits are fair and in my position I was able to work from home.

Cons

The company is often doing reductions in workforce laying off hundreds of employees at a time. Because they are traditionally top heavy it is often the managers and higher level employees that are let go. Additionally as others have mentioned promotions are often based on popularity. An issue in my department was also the fact that expectations were constantly changing.
