Pros

-Great pay -Limited working hours -Lots of holidays and vacation

Cons

- The company is so large that there are entire groups at the company who get paid to do nothing and no one ever says anything. - The technology used in sales is often 20 years old. - They promote their "values" but don't take action against sexist, ageist, or racist behavior unless it happens in a public forum. Even then the person might not be reprimanded. - Many people within the company don't understand how their own products work because there is no encouragement to share among peers at a level they will understand. - They try to encourage leadership and growth but fail at all levels and only promote people to act as placeholders, not to actually use talent. - Limited communication at all levels
