Pros

Decent company to work for. Not an extremely high stress work environment. Managers generally understanding of life and commitments outside of work. Semi-annual bonus is nice compared to once / year.

Cons

Negotiate before starting, because yearly raises are paltry; between 1-3%. Raises for promotion tend to be around 5%. And unless your project makes a significant and success contribution, arguing for a promotion is often ignored. Significant amount of corporate dead weight. Far too many middle managers, account team people, project managers, etc etc.
