Pros

it's a job if you really really really need one.

Cons

It's too big. There are so many managers that it becames redundant. No one was happy, ever. The managers were extermely judgemental and cliquey (not an actual word). If you didn't fit in, they mistreated you. I was told that I was not considered for a promotion because I never told my manager I was interested in a promotion. Who says that? This place turns it's employees into slaves.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
