      Pros

      They are a large company that has many opportunities.

      Cons

      the work life balance is extrememly difficult. Days will not be 8 hours and many of the positions will have tasks that need to be done outside of the office. Late nights or weekend work is pretty much a must. poor middle managers.

      Pros

      Lots of different businesses and opportunities to challenge throughout one's career. You run into the same people in different businesses and roles over the course of your career, which helps a person feel connected to the business.

      Cons

      Missteps can brand a person forever and make it difficult to move beyond them. While some critique a slow-to-move culture, others are more ready-fire-aim kinds of people. Also, recent Fit to Grow layoffs removed many important contributors from the business and today we don't see a sustained low-cost benefit of that layoff. Higher than acceptable costs are less likely from having too many people than from having people duplicating work across the multiple business units. We don't really enjoy the scale of being a larger company, as we behave as a confederation of small companies.
