      Great place for consultants and sales

      Pros

      Very good pay and benefits. Once you're hired on, it's a fairly stable long-term career (i.e. you really have to screw up to get fired).

      Cons

      IT resources are being managed very poorly for the last few years. We are hemorrhaging money trying to implement SAP as the future of the business. Meanwhile, no interest is being shown in maintaining the mainframe environment that will keep the company alive until SAP is deployed.

      Pros

      Good career advancement when looking for a new job. Some levels of supervision get paid less than others from business unit to unit

      Some issues handled by management differ depending on level of experience
