Pros

Hmmmm.... would need to think hard to come up with one.

Cons

You can cut the misery and negativity with a knife. I leave every morning with the intent of making it a happy, productive day... and everyday they find a way to ruin it. The work is massive and you can't even talk to your co-workers, even when it's about work! Work queues out the wazoo... quotas, quotas, quotas. Expect to be treated like you're in a work camp. The chiefs don't care, they sit back without a piece of paper on their desk. It's all about "delegation, delegation, delegation." The pay is shamefully low compared to the amount of work they expect. There is ZERO work-life balance. The amount of work is so massive that I could literally work all night, every night and still would not be caught up because your "work queue" fills up quicker than you can work it. Zero recognition. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one, if you're offered a job there. I wish I had, and am looking for another position after being there 3 months. I already know this isn't the place for me.

Pros

* Work from Home * Management seems to really care * Career mobility within the company * Company is technology agnostic -- if you have interest in a technology, there is a team using it.

Cons

* Large, large company -- sometimes it's a struggle to figure out which team is responsible for a widget. * OMG - beuacratic at times * 401K/PTO/Holidays are slightly below average * Not a bad company -- not a great company
