Pros

The pay is very high in comparison to other corporations and they arent quick to downsize.

Cons

It is an old boys network. You have to know someone to be promoted regardless of your capabilities. I personally saw management block career growth and block valuable training that would have improved a person's overall skill set. I couldnt believe what I was witnessing. Diversity takes a back seat. It is obvious in the executive suites and it trickles down.
