Pros

Great vacation package. Good bonus structure. Adequate salaries Good training and development programs.

Cons

Senior management cares more about the appearance of employee satisfaction than the reality of it. Too many senior people are not focused enough on profitability. Awful, awful healthcare coverage. Not a good place to work if you don't toe the line. Senior management does not like challenges, even when backed up with data. Meetings for the sake of having meetings. Too much time spent in preparing for dog and pony shows. Very unproductive.
