Pros

Stable company. Good work-life balance (depending on your manager). Good benefits. Modern headquarters.

Cons

Too political. Impossible to get promoted above middle management, unless you're on the "favorites list." Slow moving / slow at making decisions. Say they don't lay people off, but do so too frequently. Constantly reorganizing.

Onboarding was difficult in some cases as communications between various departments wasn't always streamlined, but overall, not bad
