Pros
Job Security Numerous Positions Locations across US/worldwide Travel opportunities (only a maybe, and if you work for many, many years) Tuition reimbursement (but very limited and only for selected fields)
Cons
Arrogance of older employees - ideas of younger employees considered a "waste of time" Bureaucracy Wait times - a hurry up to wait around environment) Late nights/no notice - meetings scheduled for after work hours, an hour before you are going home Knowledge Sharing - Though older employees may have the knowledge, it is not generally shared with the younger generation Moving Positions - this doesn't happen easily. Requirements on personal time Communication - information does not get filtered down through the ranks (if you will)
