Pros

Worthwhile mission. Stock price will continue to increase. Market leader.

Cons

Completely dysfunctional workplace. Incompetent middle management. Slow processes. Incredibly difficult to get anything done. Who you are friends with / kiss up to is more important than achievement/output. If you want to be successful here, make sure you spend time becoming friends with influential people rather than getting your work done. There is NO benefit to working hard here. Attrition is very high. Marketing division is a revolving door. No career opportunities unless you are brought in as a senior marketing manager or in LDRP program.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
