Pros

Colleagues are friendly and intelligent. Benefits are not bad, including medical, 401k, vacations, etc. Work life balance is usually under your own control.

Cons

Salary is lower than many competitors like Facebook, Google, Linkedin, etc. Many projects are in maintenance mode which means you don't get to innovate much.

Pros

Good benefits Good career opportunities if you have a good manager who has your best interests in mind

Cons

Too much politics and beurocracy ( often times more time is spent arguing about whether or not to do something, than it would take to just do it! ) Copying Google in too many ways
