Pros

I met some nice people.

Cons

I worked at the corporate level for two years and it was like being in prison. They ruled by a culture of fear. I wish I would have known ahead of time what working there was really like and regret ever leaving a great company to work here. Long hours, stress, weekends and extreme micromanaging are all part of the perks.
