Pros

Compensation, financially sound, good culture compared to many large companies

Cons

Very political and stovepiped, do not manage talent strategically, career opps limited in downsizing. Downsizing is needed, but has been administered too arbitrarily (across the board cuts) because Management does not have the capability or the patience to look for the true waste in activities. There is plenty of waste, and most people know it.

Pros

-For the most part, the people you work with are good people. Made real lifelong friends and mentors. -As with all large companies, there are plenty of opportunities to advance and/or move around if something isn't a good fit. -One of the rare places still offering a pention

Cons

-Office politics promote plenty of people who don't deserve it and the teams happiness is highly dependent upon who you end up reporting to -WAY too much false urgency created by bad leaders -Big company means slow moving in all the stuff you want to go fast. Often times too many cooks in the kitchen
