Pros

Flexibility, Opportunities, Great reward package & benefits. Some great people, have made many friends through work, have had travel opportunities, have learned a great deal from some great leaders

Cons

Current cost constraints are cause for high charged political atmosphere, job losses and quality losses of leadership. Lots of talent leaving the business.

Pros

Good salary package, some good people and the global environement make great international networking.

Cons

Very poor leadership, poor communication, lack vision and collaboration. Not well reagrded by the business, seen as a cost only, and not a business value enabler. Not the place for an IT professional looking to make a change. Lacking an experienced and professional CIO for well over 18 months.

Pros

Big corporate to hide in if you want a long career in company politics and back stabbing with schooling to constantly massage facts and figures to achieve unrealistic targets

Cons

A lot of talentless inept people hide in management and do the day to day running ! Distribution of overall company wealth and respect for workers is directed towards the upstream activities -- downstream is a poor relation
