Pros

> Very talented and driven co-workers > Very competitive environment (although sometimes that can get a little overboard)

Cons

> Fairly large and complex organization > Although there is emphasis on growth values, yet the opportunities provided are selective based on acquaintance more than just performance > Very little orientation to understand the maze of such a large organization and much time is spent more on

Pros

-Meritocracy, the better you perform the more highly you are valued. -Excellent people around you. -Large breadth of knowledge withing company -Great mentors are available if you take advantage of them. -Opportunities to move between businesses

Cons

-work/life balance -compensation is below average You can easily work as many hours as you can spare. This is actually encouraged. The beauracracy that comes with a large company is very prevalent. Sometimes very difficult to make the right moves and decisions due to red tape and "the process".
