Pros

Get to walk almost a mile from where you park to get to the front entrance, then another to get to your department for work for your daily cardio!

Cons

Endless pool of bad management that has been promoted from within, so never know any different. They will not pay for skill, everyone starts at the bottom and then they wonder why they are having so much trouble starting up a new plant from scratch. Efforts to get promoted are only met with multiple endless “step-up cards” that each task must be signed off to obtain your next raise, which might not be as bad if the list of items didn’t get continuously added to, so once you think your close they add more and now you’re months to years away from it.

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".
