Pros

This is the first company I have worked for in a career lasting a quarter of a century that really gives more than lip service to the professional development of its employees. Pay and benefits are among the best in the industry.

Cons

Top management is very distant - in Japan. Decisions made sometimes for frankly inscrutable reasons. Lots of outsourcing leads to high costs and loads of paper work with very little tangible benefit.
