Pros
You are able to pursue master's programs. Good place for young people to be in. Is a good place to advance your career. It seems to take a while but seems rewarding. Company is trying to bring in new ways of thinking. Very global and one of the biggest companies in the world. Benefits are great. Compensation is somewhat high. I work in a plant and make the same amount of money as my friends in consulting. Rick Wagoner seems to be a great CEO to work for and got his stuff together. Yes the company is not doing great but who is ?
