Pros

Leading company with lots of talent and opportunity. With a very broad protfolio, there is plenty of choice in domain. With global reach, exposure is excellent.

Cons

The size of the Titanic. With a multi dimensional matrix organization structure things can get complicated. Might be difficult for some to see themselves as counting.

Pros

- great company culture (continuous learning, team work, work/life balance) - get to use different software, applications, databases that other companies may not use due to cost - great management support/mentoring

Cons

- difficult to convert to a permanent position if you start as a contract employee - complex organizational structure means that approvals process is quite slow
