      Pros

      This is a very large company which means there are lots of interesting projects to work on if you are motivated. Generally the employees here are great coworkers, and the atmosphere is reasonably collegial.

      Cons

      Very hierarchical, and about who you are friends with. Not friends with the right people expect to go nowhere. If you are you can do a terrible job and only suffer a lateral move. Peter Principal at play here. Management lacks long term vision, and its political ideology interferes with ability to negotiate changes in industry. When the political winds blow against you, adjust your sail.
