Pros
Starting pay is very competitive. Vacation time is great compared to most large corporations. Regional offices tend to have friendly, competent managers and lower-level employees.
Cons
In order to be considered for any significant promotion, you must be willing and ready to move to Northbrook, IL. The corporation has been long talking about the importance of a virtual workplace, but the stigma attached to workers who actually telecommute makes it obvious that management believes that "work" is a place and not an action. Tenure and mobility are CLEARLY more rewarded than ability. Executives (CEO especially) are grossly overpaid for the quarter after quarter of negative results they deliver.
