Pros

Looks good on your resume, okay benefits, job security (I've seen them keep a ton of people who suck at their job and are lazy)

Cons

Management is terrible and completely disconnected from what their employees actually do. Way too much overlapping upper management, No work life balance, Lots of forced overtime and forced weekends with no warning, (sales team was just told today that we are expected to work at least 8 hours a day every single day for the rest of the year with only 1 day off for xmas) commission structure is impossible to follow, people rarely hit the target commission payouts because the quotas are ridiculously inflated.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
