Pros

Depending upon which division you work there may be good opportunities for building your resume. If you manage to be good friends with senior staff you will get special treatment(regular promotions, selection for training and change of role to what you desire)

Cons

Short sighted leadership Most senior staff in their positions because of affinity to someone instead of skill-set. This is clearly visible and spreads the suck-up and yes man culture instead of motivating people to perform better. Preach gallup but dont care about results after a few weeks Not a place for hard work but "smart" work types Management not trust worthy

Pros

-Overall high level of talent that you work with -Massive Economies of Scale -Healthy bonus related to healthy company performance

Cons

- Poor Work/Life Balance - HR really only works for Director's and up, and enables their behavior regardless of alignment with company values. Just there to protect the shield - Upstream Marketing has little to know upward growth or trajectory even with years of high ratings on reviews. Must carry the bag to grow career at Stryker.
