Pros

Good people to work with- most are hard working some have been coasting for decades. Potential for exposure to other business units and functions but you have to really drive the desire to learn outside your own role.

Cons

Extreme bureaucracy and lower than average pay for tenure. Business units have "favorites" that they promote, something they call the nine box. Horrific promotion schedule and not enough women in executive leadership roles.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
