Pros

The company is so massive it might be different in what division/office you work at. If you are smart, and keep your head down, you might be able to have a work-life balance.

Cons

HORRIBLE benefits, minimum required by state. 2 weeks vacation and 1 week sick, no berevement, no jury duty?!? No short term disability? High copay for mediocre insurance. 2 weeks vacation does not cut it for professionals that have to work insanely hard in an understaffed environment on call 24/7 with very little flexibility. It definitely leads to an attitude of not giving a crap about quality output.
