Pros

A lot of the people are great to work with, and there are aspects that are pretty standard and only to be expected in a large organization.

Cons

We make the same mistakes over and over again.... decision making seems to be centered around a small set of individuals and changing approach for processes and approaches to make improvements is nigh-on impossible unless it fits with their view of how things should be done.

Pros

I enjoyed the relaxed, collegiate-style atmosphere. All my co-workers were helpful, friendly, and cooperative. Lower-level management was pleasant to deal with -- upper-level management left little to be desired.

Cons

I was hired with a group of about 25 people and we were laid off with over 200 employees 2 months later. There was a SERIOUS disconnect between upper-level management and all other employees / departments. We would frequently receive scathing emails from people we knew by name only, and who had no clue what our job actually entailed. This company is a classic case of the "left hand not knowing what the right is doing." In my 2-month stint, I held 3 different job titles. There would be a change of procedure literally every 2 weeks -- I'm not exaggerating. Just when we would learn a new system or procedure, it would change...again. I've never experienced such instability anywhere else.
