Pros

The company has good benefits and offers plenty of flexible work arrangements. Wok/Life balance is a priority in most areas of the company. Provides many opportunities for collaboration amongst teams and across functions. Many opportunities to explore different career paths without having to start over in a new company. Good tuition reimbursement program and other benefits.

Cons

The "promote from within" concept only goes so far. If you are hired in as "non-management" plan to stay there as promotions out of "non management" and into "management" are few and far between. Promotion to management typically involves being open to relocating to very little pay increase. Pursuing additional education or certifications outside the company will not help with advancement. Company has many over qualified A&T's (non-management) with MBA's that want to get promoted and the company does not provide an open and encouraging path to make that happen that does not require moving. The pay scale bands leave many employees capping out after 7-10 years with very few opportunities to see continued salary increases.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
