Pros
-Amazing benefits, vacation time, pension (though discontinued for new salaried employees) -Lots of great people to work with, always something to do, new challenges, etc.
Cons
Unless you're on the very bottom of the totem pole, you notice that your development path leaves something to be desired. Whenever they are vacated, all higher up positions are eliminated or filled with management from France so there's very little hope of ever getting that amazing promotion, HR is atrocious. They have no desire to help the employees, no coverage for outside learning and when you get a promotion to another department, they'll fight your new boss on lowering your salary despite the fact that he wants to pay you what you asked for. There is a general attitude towards less senior people that they should show up, do their job, go home and be thankful they have a job. There is zero ability to get help on a development plan or make your ambitions known outside your department, which seriously hampers your opportunities on such a large site. The site in general seems to get the short end of the stick from France. Equipment is older than it should be, staffing is always a little less than it should be, there always seems to be a reactionary project happening with deadlines that are way too short.
