Pros

Nice colleagues, good 401k benefit.

Cons

Continued downsizing and moving IT jobs overseas. Not a great place if you want a career in IT. More work continues to be done by fewer people. Benefits continue to decline including pension which moves to a cash plan, employee contributions to medical and dental, education reimbursement.

Pros

Great benefits and high salary, a lot of room for growth.

Cons

Experience depends highly on your manager and department. I worked my butt off and had an awful manager in a toxic department, but now I have an amazing manager in a much calmer department.
