Pros

The benefits and the big company recognition for future positions. Lots of growth potential that may not be present at a smaller company. Good company culture, even with recent lay offs. Lots of vacation time and good work/life balance!

Cons

Huge company and you can easily get lost in the crowd. You see a certain level of politics, which is common in large companies. There is still some dead weight type people around even with recent layoffs. In general everyone has to worker harder after cut backs, which is good.

Pros

Work from home flexibility and the summer and winter shutdown periods are a nice benefit. Good health insurance.

Cons

Management style can be controlling and micromanaging with expectations that shift without clear communication. Employees are held to high standards but not always given the support or clarity needed to meet them. Performance concerns are documented quickly without full context being considered. Culture does not match the company’s public image.
