Pros

I work were I am for two reasons. The location is good for my daughter and how close I am to her school and the family work/life balance. I am able to get my daughter from school and bring her to work or take off when either of my children are sick with no questions asked.

Cons

Never get recognized for hard work only the mistakes, small branches don't get recognized unless they are able to make a huge boom for the company. People are friendly when they want soemthing either personal or professional. No one likes to help out. When a good job is performed many times it goes unrecognized unless once again it is a large impact for the company not the branch or the personel.

Pros

The recruiting process is fairly stringent, so the people you end up working with are of high caliber. A great part of the culture is the 'fun' element and even senior managers do not take themselves too seriously. Makes for a highly enjoyable environment where people focus on delivering results while making sure they are enjoying themselves.

Cons

Within certain groups (esp. marketing) there is quite a lot of competition among employees, with plenty type-A people pushing ahead to get promoted as fast as possible and ahead of everyone else.
