Pros

A lot of job security. I have learned a lot and met a lot of great people. You are provided with a lot of training and the chance to attend a lot of industry conferences.

Cons

Very little upward opportunity. Good place if you want a job, not a career. A lot of politics. The pay raises and bonuses are very small. Good work is not appreciated.

Pros

Good benefits, stable job. Lots of lateral movement. On sight cafeteria (Though some may see this as a con) on sit gym

Cons

Very political. Very little room to move up. There's only a few "Grades" of pay, and most jobs are the lower 3 grades.

Pros

You can get paid for doing very, very little if you are not at all ambitious.

Cons

Little possibility for career advancement. The "great benefits" everyone talks about are all but gone. Micromanagement for the sake of micromanagement. Tonedeaf management. ...and the kicker, they play the "even though things are getting worse here, at least you have a job" card.
