Pros

It's a pay check other then that not alot to say. Benefits continue to cost all or more then your yearly raise, get your money when you join as raises are small if at all.

Cons

Yearly layoffs for a company that makes Billions in profit is sickening. But the numbers of upper management and executives continue to grow. Continued moving R&D jobs overseas and reductions here in the states.
