Pros

Working for a large company you have the ability to work on many projects. Many of those projects are well funded which can lead to job security.

Cons

Leadership changes have shifted the company to a very corporate feel and less of an employee centered atmosphere. This has led to cut backs in training and any new work is kept very close to the chest making employees nervous about their jobs that their is not enough work to keep them around.
