Pros

The company has changed a lot since the good ole' days. I spent 33 years there, and as a big company I had 8 careers by moving to and fro. Be careful to make sure their current direction matches your own.

Cons

They missed mobile, and are struggling. When growth is not there, there is a lot of pressure on costs.

Pros

Fantastically little manager oversight. I hate being micromanaged. Give me some direction and let me work. In this way, it is great. I contract through a staffing agency, who I also never talk to. A dream. Pay is good. Expectations are low (which could be a con for some).

Cons

There is really no manager guidance, and hardly any feedback. Managers aren't allowed to meet regularly with contractors. Very hierarchical. Super slow task initiation. SUPER slow implementation. Like a six-month to one-year dev backlog. Not a good fit if you're hungry and a change-agent and live to make work processes better. Did I say slow? I meant glacial. And tribal/political. And scrumfall dysfunction. Other than that, it's great.
