Pros

Great benefits. Some very smart people. Beginning a culture shift over to a technology company. Lot's of upside.

Cons

There's some deadweight in the organization that could easily be eliminated if the company had the fortitude. Marketing is a bit of a mess as a function, especially the US region (lot's of firedrills, senior management says "yes" to everything leaving mid and junior level managers to sort things out and work long hours). Also, if you want to truly be a tech innovator and attract truly innovative people, you might want to consider moving HQ out of the sleepy suburbs and into NYC.

Pros

Great Benefits, Occasionally interesting projects if you are in the right team especially if project is a business imperative. Great Top Leadership especially CEO. He is taking this company places. If only an ounce of some of his awesomeness can trickle down to the mid level management.

Cons

Too much cronyism. Make that extreme cronyism. It's done so openly it stinks. Forget about work life balance that they preach on paper but do not put in practice.
