Quite a stable work place. If your project finish, you'll have a lot of other options in the company. A lot of social events and benefits. People are very nice.

Cons

No salary raise for years. Managers are very strict. Poor HR department, doesn't care about the employees at all. Work life balance is bad in some projects. No days off after returning from long & hard business trips. Fun days are deducted from the employees vacation days!!! Never heard of such thing elsewhere.
