Pros

Excellent benefits - including leave programs, pension, 401k, wellness incentives. Health plan is okay (Cigna), but deductible is very high.

Cons

No growth opportunities (unless you're one of a chosen few), hard to get out of the "silo" you're stuck in, no talent development, below market pay, inability to make decisions, wrong people in senior leadership roles, window dressing on diversity, good talent frequently leaves due to unfilled promises made at hire, tenure at company is more valued than the right skills and leadership experience.

Pros

The engineering teams I worked with were some of the brightest I've ever worked with. Pay was very good.

Cons

During my 2 years - there were numerous reorganizations that resulted in layoffs. It seemed to happen every 4-6 months. This created a lot of instability for employees - always looking over our shoulder expecting to be tapped by HR for the layoff conversation.
