Pros

-Ability to move to other areas of the business to pursue other career opportunities. -Flexibility with work hours and telecommuting. -Decent benefits. -Most employees have good values and ethics - not a cutthroat environment.

Cons

-If you are in a department that is a cost center and not a profit center, be prepared to work in a situation of extreme understaffing. -Lousy technology. -Politics, but probably not more than would be found in similar firms. -Senior management and HR treat employees as a number, not people. Immediate management does treat people as individuals, though.

Pros

Long standing name in the industry

Cons

Outsources jobs and uses the excuse they need to do this because they are a global company Poor pay compared to other companies in the industry Management is full of Baby boomers that wont retire and have 1970's ideas... Every year there is a new goal/ new slogan (company is unable to focus and follow through anything)
