Pros

Some incentives to personal development, decent benefits, opportunity to change jobs within the company, generally good work/life balance. Very diverse in the engineering part of the company.

Cons

Non-flexible procesess which can be frustrating, no clear accountability in some parts of the business. Very "silo" working, people don't know what their colleagues in a team who sits right next to yours are doing, extremely poor communication between SO and TO sides of the business. Management want to keep changing things to prove they can manage change and get their promotion, but most of the times the staff just feel lost.
