Pros

Competitive pay, good benefits, interesting/challenging work.

Cons

New CEO making severe cuts, often eliminating very talented and experienced employees, seemingly for no reason at all. He's instilling a culture of fear and intimidation that makes it a miserable place to work. No one is safe from the chopping block, except EHH and the people he brought with him.

Pros

Fair minded and supportive management. Not directly involved in RR management, so did not have the same hours or demands as many do.

Cons

None really--large publicly held company. Working on a contract basis, so can't speak to benefits.
