Pros

Company has grown to a great international footprint. Possibilities for transfers and promotions are possible.

Cons

Company is highly critical of productivity through metrics and continuous improvement, to the degree its oppressive to the employees. Promotion opportunities have all but vanished unless you are pre-selected for a certain position. I've seen less experienced under grads get positions ahead of senior employees with adequate experience to promote. Very discouraging and a huge reason I am no longer employed there (after 23 years). This is the "good ol boy" network others refer to. HR is resilient to employee issues. The company in its early years was expanding, super profitable and a acquisition tyrant. A good place to be. Not so much these days as the economy has cooled.

Some teams are great, some are insufferable

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a global company so if you like to travel, especially to southeast Asia and/or Europe, then you'll probably enjoy sales or project management, etc. There are some really great and intelligent technical people in some teams, and it's truly a great company to manufacture your product through if you're a customer.

Cons

Cronyism like you wouldn't believe. Tons of wasted money and lack of oversight and structure. Shooting from the hip is the rule rather than the exception. Mostly lip-service, peacocking and smoke n' mirrors instead of growth and data-driven choices. It's too bad.
