      If you live in India, it's great!

      Pros

      Large company and therefore lots of different technologies in use. Stock purchase plan is great.

      Cons

      Raises and bonuses are poor if you're not higher than Director-level. Company has stated they are looking to replace technology jobs with people off-shore. Seems to be mostly in India. Non-tech jobs won't be far behind. Healthcare benefits could be better - especially for a Healthcare company. Trying to do Agile with a forced-ranking review system. Profits come before everything else. A lot of executives got really rich, but this will cost the company in the long run.
