Pros

This is my second job early in my career and am very happy. The pay and benefits are great. The office is beautiful. All the people I work with are really down to earth and understanding. I could see myself being here for a few years or for a couple decades. It all depends on the promotion track. Otherwise I have no intentions of leaving at the moment.

Cons

Political like most companies are and a very structured promotion schedule.

Pros

Big Company with lots of perks, They have a gym, they have a good cafe and an in house barista.

Cons

Know this going in: you are expendable, and loyalty here runs one way. Your job can be gone for any reason, at any time — stellar reviews won't save you. All it takes is some office-politics nonsense and suddenly you're out, no job, no benefits. They will also work you into the ground. On call 24/7. And do not kid yourself — HR is not your friend. They make plenty of promises they never keep, and they'll smile at you while they get ready to cut you loose. Bottom line: squirrel away your money and build a cushion, because they will throw you away the moment it suits them.
