Pros

Great benefits, strong emphasis on community giving, lots of opportunity to work in a wide range of areas.

Cons

The corporate strategy comes across like lip service. There's all these pillars but no one is really seeing any movement. It's a hierarchical company, it's not very diverse and the 80/20 philosophy is over-used and has been twisted in ways to allow management to skirt real issues. People seem more motivated by fear than values.
