Pros

Money and benefits are good. Bonus is good - but that depends purely on which team are working on, and on your team lead. Office is ok (as for open space) Lots of smart people

Cons

A lot of work. Often pointless and mundane. Legacy stuff. Lots of stupid people. Long hours if you want to be promoted. Difficult to advance. Company treats people - especially contractors - like crap. Be ready to move back in time 20 years if you work here.

There are a lot of talented, smart, hard working people here. Also it is possible to affect change if you speak up.

Getting things done across different divisions of the company can be challenging. Also the company has been slow to adopt modern software development tools and practices, but they are aware of the problem and making improvements.
