Pros

Some talented people, some nice people.

Cons

Mostly idiots. Management is out of the dark ages. Very top heavy management style with no one to do the works (money spent on top managers). Horrible place to work if you're in IT.

Pros

Being exposed to a multi-industry company

Cons

Executives get the high salaries along with bonus incentives while the people doing the actual work are very poorly compensated. Unless you come in at a high level it's very difficult to advance.
