Pros

Good benefits (health, 401K etc). Competitive salary. Flexible regarding working in an office or working virtual office or a combination of both. A good supervisor can help avoid some of the red tape in the company.

Cons

Hierarchical management style stemming from old AT&T days. Lots of levels. Promotional opportunities, especially since dot com downturn to present, are very limited. Lots of layoffs and limited job security. You tend to be pigeon-holed with the work you do, with limited opportunity to make lateral moves. Significant travel within professional services and lots of out-of-hours work expected. Bonus structure and performance review system disappointing.
