Well respected, large company with job security, but somewhat limited opportunities in engineering field.
Pros
Large, stable and well-respected company. Excellent job security, especially for younger employees. Lots of different opportunities available. Annual bonus paid. Benefits are comprehensive (medical, dental, life insurance, sick leave). Company employee credit union is an excellent financial resource and great alternative to bigger banks.
Cons
-Annual bonus is not tied to individual performance, but to company's profit as a whole. One arm of the company under-performing can drastically reduce the bonus for everybody. -Also, while the company takes good care of employees for the most part, they have an annoying habit of pandering to shareholders at employees' expense. -As with any large company, finding an opportunity to distinguish yourself is difficult. For the most part, you're one of the herd. While there are many different opportunities for lateral movement, moving up is not likely.
