Pros

Great compensation and benefits. High profile organization. Minimal pressure on lower level employees

Cons

Sterile bureucratic "pack mentality" highly politicized environment full of red tape where you continually have to look over your shoulder to make sure you are intact. You are either in the click or out. High turnover and minimal employee loyalty. Unstable internal politics that can change total environment overnight.
