Pros

In some business units there can be a strong teamwork a one co-workers; good people to work with. Benefits and salary are average.

Cons

Very negative corporate culture; default is that you are wrong unless you can prove you are right; very high turnover so those who stay >1 yr end up being overloaded with work and constantly training new resources.
