Pros

The approach to the business is solid. management is knowledgeable. The pay is good and the benefits are decent.

Cons

I was painted a picture of new department with plenty of opportunity to learn and grow. Quickly i found out that this department is the red headed step child of the company. Managers manage through fear. You must "earn" trust of management, but this trust is not earned easily. Mistakes will not be tolerated. I was threatened to have my company car taken away on my 2nd day of employment. I was threatened to be fired in less than 6 weeks on the job, 3 of those weeks were training. Management is very passive aggressive. I was berated for taking days off after the days were approved by management, I had no problems working if it was asked of me. Management found out i was looking for another job, and i was written up the very next day. This clearly was not the opportunity i thought it would be.

Pros

Big company so you can move around and never feel bored. Training opportunities are offered. Work/life balance. Family feel. Decentralized culture so you are empowered to make decisions. Humble leadership. Good business (financially).

Cons

Most global locations are outside of the city, so if you prefer living in the city, this could be difficult for you.
