Pros

Salary is competitive, some benefits are generous

Cons

Management is poor and it's a very secretive society. They do not communicate important information with other department members. Be very careful if you are reaching an age considered "old". You will soon start receiving contrived reviews that will eventually warrant a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) and dismissal from the company is 100% imminent no matter what your past reviews or company performance has been in the past.
