Pros

Not being unemployed is the biggest pro. other than that, none.

Cons

Zero career growth possible unless you are in Poland, India or NC. Jobs are created out of thin area for the "favorites" No bonuses Salary cuts ( car allowance in Europe is withdrawn, that was a big incentive to work hard and get promoted) No career path is outlined by managers. Attitude is "sit down, shut up and work" Company has become too massive to function effectively.
