Pros

Good work life balance. Great people to work with. While not that innovative, it has solid knowledge of its field, and can produce new products. Good offices in nice buildings with great commuting connections. Good modern benefits. Not an employer who forces or condones too much overtime.

Cons

Too much process. Too much management, too many layers. Could produce many better projects with better leadership in place. Sometimes the company doesn't understand the import of its decisions, and it should listen to the ground level more.

Pros

Good compensation/benefits, generally nice and motivated co-workers, company is undergoing transformation and trying to get into new markets (digital, compliance, WUBS).

Cons

Transformation process leads to confusion and miscommunications, some processes/tasks take a lot more time and energy than necessary, resistant to change.
