Pros

Challenging work with a plethora of businesses and industries to choose from. Entrepreneurial environment combined with a lean workforce means you're tasked with big projects from the get go and have the autonomy to decide how to proceed.

Cons

Salaries are lower than average, navigating through such a large company can be tough at times. Not a lot of "perks". Frequent travel may be a pre-requisite. Upward mobility might be difficult, but lateral mobility or "diagonal" mobility is pretty common.

Pros

Great co-workers; smart people who are dedicated to doing good work. There is a general kindness and everyone seems willing to help each other.

Cons

The pay is low, and everyone seems stretched thin. There is little structure to ensure local leaders follow good practices. Evaluation of performance tends to be highly subjective. There seems to be very little management of the management.
