Pros

lots of sharp people to work with. fast paced environment where you learn on the fly.

Cons

doesn't seem to pay competitively in some departments such as global support services. Some departments are still nice to work for and will pay and treat people appropriately. Global support services however has taken the lower road. little freedom to do the right thing is given and micromanagement is a real problem. you will not even get close to your market value and the low pay is not worth staying in this kind of environment.

Great culture in an enterprise package, its like a big - small company. Lots of opportunity and a lot less politics. Fiscally prudent and stable.

Cons

Typical pains of a rapidly growing company.
