Pros

Challenging and exciting work. Fast paced. Quality employees. Great proprietary systems. Top notch facilities. Good location locally. Respect given to all levels and departments.

Cons

Too fast paced at times. Work life balance issues persist. Global model makes for work seemingly 24/7 at times depending on role and department.

Pros

Respectable company, working with smart people for the most people.

Cons

Huge company, can be hard to navigate, almost impossible to get fired so good workers pick up slack for bad works. They need to trim fat faster and better
