Pros

Lots of good people. Promotes activities like lunchtime soccer, basketball, fitness classes and golf after work but many people are too busy to participate.

Cons

Most employees are too busy doing what their boss wants instead of coming up with innovative ideas. Most projects just need to be completed ASAP, it doesn't matter if they're done right. SAP was an exception. Many management decisions are not well thought out. Yearly merit raises abolished about 8 years ago.

Pros

Work from home period was great but I know that’s not how they operate anymore. My organization structure in corporate marketing was insulated from a lot of the departmental drama and turnover.

Cons

A lot of departmental turnover made following and adopting processes hard Not very competitive for pay Hard to move up the job ladder, easier to leave.
