Pros

Good benefits and competitive salary. Company prides itself in hiring highly qualified employees and so the workforce is educated and very professional.

Cons

Promotions are not tied to ability but to office politics. Company has a very false annual evaluation process that while it is suppose to be calibrated is very skewed. Routinely requires that 5%-10% of its workforce will be rated as off course at year end. These individuals are then laid off in February.

Pros

If you have a family there are good benefits.

Cons

Not a good company to work for with regard to how they treat employees who speak up, They do not treat all employees the same. They can and will get away with nonethical practices. Very political. Low Morale -- especially amongst employees who have worked at this company for 10+ years

Pros

if you want to retire and dont worry about your pay check growth that inturn reflects in your personal and professional growth and development, this is a best place to hang out. If you are good in spending your whole day,week and months in meeting rooms and provide lip service, awesome place to stay.

Cons

Not at all a place for any sane professional to grow. Full of politics. Re orgs happens like evry day meetings. If you wanna go on depression pills, please join this company. Filled with full of soccer moms and movie dadys.
