Pros

Working with some of the best minds in the industry and the opportunity to work for a company that's the leader in the business. Great work-life balance.

Cons

Working for a company so huge needs a lot of hard work to get noticed. Not the most happening of places.

Pros

I had the best of times there. Depending your level of motivation, you can go places.

Cons

Too much nepotism, loyalty reward vs perf reward drive younger folks away. It's still way too Peoria boys driven for a fortune 50 company. Does feel very much 21st century.
