Pros

Career advancement opportunities are everywhere. Total compensation is outstanding. In my specialty, work is usually valued, and sometimes even interesting.

Cons

People are moved through different positions too quickly in many cases, which leads to a lack of depth when dealing with others in the company. However, the people in the company seem to be better than average, so that is not always as bad as it would be at some companies. Because of the rapid moves in management, people are not in a position long enough to be held responsible for bad long-term decisions, which has led to short-term management thinking.

Pros

- Great learning opportunity - get to work with some of the most knowledgeable, hard working, smart, and well rounded individuals - Learn top of the industry engineering skills and fundamentals - Strong emphasis on data backed decision making

Cons

- Extremely political, differentiation between high performers is typically more about how well you've advertised yourself and what aliances you've made as opposed to your actual contributions - Very resistant to change, everything is essentially already mapped out for you - Too rigid of a work environment with little room for individuality or new ways of approaching old problems
