Pros

- Large company with many opportunities to learn and grow - Interesting work.

Cons

- Petty senior management who are weak minded and surround themselves with sycophants. - Suffocating bureaucracy - No tolerance for discussion of alternate ideas or approaches - Management confuses activity with accomplishment and rewards are based on this approach. - Succession plans are routinely ignored. Rather than promote from within senior positions are filled with external hires. - Lack of respect and trust towards employees

Pros

Good work/life balance. It's easy to make up missed hours, and it's extremely rare that to have to work overtime. Pay is decent

Cons

Every single tool and program you use will be an ancient, in-house, buggy mess. Can be hard to change jobs if you work here very long, as every piece of technology they use is non-standard and/or obsolete, so you don't gain any experience with technologies still used by other companies. Your will only spend about 10% your work day actually coding. The rest will be spent dealing with massive amounts of bureaucratic red tape.
