Pros

Very stable company financially. Highly aware and protective of their company brand and integrity. Very unlikely to ever be an "Enron."

Cons

Such a large company, they are unable to be nimble in the marketplace nor can they easily foster an entrepreneurial spirit among the ranks. Performance and ranking system fosters inter-employee competitiveness by people seeking personal credit in the quest for top ranking; this disables collaborative culture development where better productivity and superior answers can usually be better developed.

Pros

Benefits, talented people, if you rank good, the raises are increadible (can go up to 20%)

Cons

No work life balance Poor vacation policy No flex time Expected ovetime, all the time. Finishing your job without working ovetime is not deemed as efficiency. They just give you more work to adjust to the same level of ovetime everyone else is working. 70 hours a week is GREAT performance! Even if 70 hours was due to incompetancy of the person.

Pros

Excellent benefits; varied and interesting people from all over the world. Our current chairman is one of the best moves we've made, and it seems we have good management working forward for the future.

Cons

Ranking system is one of the worst methods I've seen; concern that it is manipulated and very dependent on whether or not you work for the right manager. Not certain the the best are being culled from the younger folks for advacement.
