Business Outlook
Pros
Great benefits; great opportunities to be a part of a global company and global projects; great brand and name recognition; lots of on-the-spot recognition and 'gifts' for employees; diversity efforts are very important and are not just the 'flavor of the month'; lots of women in leadership roles
Cons
political posturing; huge hierarchy/beaurocracy--sometimes takes forever for projects/ideas to be realized (if at all); lot of favoritism related to promotion--not always the most competent person is the one chosen; layoffs common; people in senior management don't always communicate information like they promised to; working 24x7 is tough to balance work/life; don't have childcare arrangements
