Pros

Isn't great but could be worse

Cons

Slightly below average pay and benefits Most employees do not participate in goal sharing or other incentives Large company run by policies that are inflexible, nonsensical and in some cases hypocritical. For example, a goal of 40% women leadership sounds great but abysmal maternity benefits tells the true story of how much you really care about women.
