Pros

Good stepping stone company. Reputation of yesteryear still holds weight.

Cons

Bullying and intimidation seems to be the standard across divisions. Starts from the top down due to directives that cannot be met because of limited resources, low staffing, and poor work life balance. Good luck enjoying holidays or vacation. Old boys club that tries to stay relevant but cannot keep up with the times. Young talent leaving in droves. Pay is below industry standard. Offices are depressing, dirty, and falling a part. Get it on your resume but don’t over stay your welcome.
