Although I had good times there and learned a lot, they treat people horribly and have too many useless managers.

Pros

Intro to a lot of different technologies, good when you are right out of college

Cons

Your co-workers who do not know how to do their job are the ones who become managers and of course, they can't manage you well and it becomes miserable until you transfer to a new group and do the same thing all over again.
