      Pros

      If you fit within the guidelines of what the company feels is important to it's success you can succeed and grow. As an employee you receive good salary and benefits. When you are laid off the company provides a good severance package.

      Cons

      The company is very institutionalized and you must follow their structure. Some managers use this to restrict the behavior of their employee's which restricts creativity.
