      Pros

      There are many opportunities, but you need to work hard for them. People can move up the company ladder fairly quickly. This may require both being good at your job, and being a good politician.

      Cons

      Too many acronyms! Sometimes it is hard to follow what the company does due to their broad structure. The support structure for new hires can be improved upon. I have seen new engineers get lost during the first few months with the company. Having a more structured first few months would help increase the productivity.

      Pros

      Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

      Cons

      Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
