Pros

Overall benefits and salary as well as work life balance is great comparative to similar organizations. Opportunity for advancement and differing job roles but expect to put in some time at each to be offered advancement.

Cons

Legacy practices and politics exist that challenges younger and outsider influence. This is a cultural norm there and unless you understand the environment is difficult for newcomers.

Pros

Great place to work as there was every opportunity to succeed.

Cons

At times would be very bureaucratic at times as there was always a meeting for a meeting. Understanding this is a highly regulated industry I found it necessary and tolerated the layers of communication.
