Pros
Its a giant, international company with a lot of job opportunities, if you have the right manager who is willing to invest in your future. The company itself is growing, and is spread around across the country and around the world. In addition, its an exciting company in that products are always being released and upgraded. In addition, you are in an industry where you are helping people, which is something you can't say in a lot of industries out there. The industry is also fairly recession-proof, since people are always getting sick, independent of the economy, which is a plus right now.
Cons
Management isn't on the same page, and each facility is run independently, making it a series of fiefdoms that don't act the same way. The company's culture is extremely aggressive, so a lot of the time it is 'eat or be eaten.' There is not loyalty to your subordinates, coworkers, or anyone, really. To move up in the company someone up there has to like you, and then you just grab their coattails as they move up as well. Not to mention, at any time, they may decide you product line isn't profitable and ship it to China. They have an entire department dedicated to closing plants. That's not a comfortable feeling.
