Pros

Exposure to wide varieties of technologies. Nice people. Opportunities to hone your political skills. Lots of diversity, lots of different kinds of people to meet. You get to interact with a vast array of people.

Cons

Too much politics. Real workers who want to just do their job are not allowed to work sincerly. ITs a political jungle in there. Extremely vertical groups, each group only does their thing, and nothing else. ITs like wearing blinders to work. There is no sharing of data/information between groups, and there is a lot of back stabbing and back biting.

Pros

Benefits and time off are definitely a plus, very accommodating.

Cons

Great working environment, but you need to be co cern every year when cuts hit. They rate you average if they plan on cutting you and it seems like the cuts are based higher on the older employees that have many years with the company. Growth was non existing, every year it was senior managers are not allowing any promotions even to 2 rating employees for many years.
