Pros

Stable job with good pay and benefits, and an overall friendly work environment. Offers work opportunities all around the world all within the same "company".

Cons

Things are slow to change. Everything from software programs and protocol, to the office environment and work schedule/type options. Still working with Microsoft Office 2010 in a cubicle farm with no option to telecommute and having to record the same required, annual training into 5 different websites for tracking purposes.

Pros

Won’t fire anyone, know how much you’re going to make.

Cons

Bad raises. Job growth is very uncommon. Management is incompetent from top to bottom. Not enough people and too much work. Nepotism is rampant in this organization. Unqualified people are promoted. Career bad apples are left without being fired or disciplined. First level managers are useless. They at too much red tape to do the most basic things. Upper levels are arrogant and hard headed.hiring has been frozen for a year yet somehow the ‘bud club’ is promoting people constantly who are in their ‘inner circle’. Hiring actions are super sketchy, names are dropped for specific people to be hired etc. It’s crazy
