Pros

Really good salary and in my case, I was with the same team for 10+ years so chemistry was almost perfect.

Cons

Upper management does not want to invest in innovation. They simply want to buy up other companies, trim the fat, drive up the share price and then rinse & repeat. CEO is very egotistical, thinks he knows what's going on inside each business unit (impossible).

Pros

Worked on small teams so I got to do different things on different areas which was mind opening and nice. Also got to develop features that really made a different and an impact on the company's product.

Cons

Its a big American corporation so there's a lot of bureaucracy. Many unnecessary meetings. It's very slow sometimes. The pay is also not as good as other parallel companies.
