Pros

Benefits are very good and salary is competitive. There are good people in the organization and if your lucky you work for some of them.

Cons

Management often makes decisions prior to evaluating the decisions they make. They leave the validation to the employees who are forced to justify these sometime very poor decisions. Culture can be combative where managers often resort to shouting. This shouting management style comes from the top down in IT. Opportunities for advancement are very limited. If you're in the "Good Ol Boys club" you'll do fine.

Good ole boys club! Your opinion doesn’t mater unless your in the click! Advancement is not always because of your skill and knowledge. Room for advancement is slim.
