Pros

The people who I worked with and who worked for me were great.

Cons

Hard to get ahead. IT was very "inside" or "outside" and if you weren't on the inside, there is no chance of advancement. It was also difficult to get a pay raise. Say you are locked into the bottom of the pay range set forth by HR, they would raise the pay range by a few percentage points (COLA) and call it a performance raise.
