Pros

Huge company, lots of opportunities to network and interact with others. Nice campus and lots of programs for internal employees to be involved in.

Cons

Because company is so huge, it is easy to get lost. While the company has many benefits for it's employees, these are limited to the internal employees only. If you are an external (contracted employee) you do not get to take advantage of these perks and you also get much more work on your plate than internals. External employees also tend to get overlooked for many opportunities within the company.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
