Pros

Working hours are not too long.

Cons

Contractors are treated like rubbish. All employees can be asked to leave within a matter of 2 mins. Managers actively promote politics and keep teams divided.

Pros

The people are the main reason that if you get the job, you stay, I loved being able to work from home.

Cons

Annual layoffs (aka re-orgs) .Tenure is valued more than talent/proven capabilities to operate at a higher level and exceed department/business goals.
