Pros

Resources, a global network, many opportunities to move around. Good benefits.

Cons

Safe and comfortable culture. Distributed offices means no real company culture. Not moving fast enough to industry changes.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
