Business Outlook
Pros
Lots to learn if you move yourself around and go for the challenges. Excellent brand name recognition and respect and the products the company produces are valuable to clients. Overall culture is positive. The 'real-world' experience sweet spot is Supervisor to Senior Manager. Below that, you're processing and above that, it becomes more about company specific politics for some and a stopping point for others.
Cons
In regard to research, you won't learn industry standards, you'll learn company standards - these may not transfer to another research company. If you're looking for career growth as a researcher, you'll need research training or credentials from elsewhere.
