Pros

Good products - make a real difference in people's lives. Smart, engaged, friendly colleagues. Collaborative environment. Thoughtful strategic planning. Lots of training and career development opportunities - including moves from one division to another, to a different role, and international moves.

Cons

Level of change makes company dynamic but will not appeal to everyone.
