Pros

It's still a job so you get your paycheck.

Cons

incompetent higher management covers up unethical practices ( such as corporate bullying) of those who help them do their jobs and secure their positions. Good employees are discriminated and lazy employees are fully supported based on friendships

Pros

IT at the operations center in Memphis used to be at the good end of a firehose of money, but the good old days are clearly over. Now the best thing about the place is free coffee. But they've stopped giving away cups.

Cons

With (I think) a few groups that are notable exceptions, IT management is frustratingly inept. They will be very nice to you and give you lots of money (well, they would until about 6 months ago) but they are incapable of differentiating between good work and gross incompetence. This is all starting to catch up now and there's a mood of panic about the place. People are being laid off rapidly; sadly your chances of going away don't seem at all related to your usefulness to the company.
