Pros

Excellent benefits, various types of jobs/opportunities across the company. Strong brand identity across the world, thus a good name on the resume.

Cons

Very political and many layers of management. Difficult to get noticed for good work, unless you play the "corporate / political game" well. Promotions go to those who are best at "the game" and not necessarily the best and brightest or most talented.
