Pros

Great benefits! Stock contribution (note it does take five years to earn 2009 contribution--you get 20% each year). They promote within the company. They attempt to not lay off as much as possible--job security.

Cons

It is militaristic environment. The culture is a bore. Very operational driven. Many meetings that do not get a lot accomplished. Involved in many philanthropies, which require donations (strongly urged and noted). The longer you have been with company more opportunities to move up. Long hours are required. And low pay in comparison to industry standard.
