Pros

I appreciated all of my co-workers I directly worked with on projects.

Cons

Nepotism is really bad, especially if someone has money. HR is aware of it but doesn't do anything to stop it. Layoffs are rough and cold, even to people with significant tenure. Raises each years don't even keep up with cost of living.
