Pros

Let you take time if when needed. Good benefits package.

Cons

You pay it forward, then they don't compensate. They promote based on a "good 'ole boy" system. If you get in with the right clique, you will be promoted. However, expect your manager to resent you if you decide to move on to a better job outside his/her department. They put out a yearly employee feedback survey. If you answer with anything other than positive, they will try and "weed" you out, because a manager's performance review is based on his/her survey scores. Also, the manager expects his/her team to develop ways to bring up the scores, The survey is pointless.

Pros

Compensation, job stability, and benefits were very competitive. It is a good place for low and mid level professionals to gain experience. Many opportunities to work on very large scale interactive and branding projects.

Cons

Opportunities for advancement and/or training are few and far between. Politics tend to run wild, while common sense seems to sometimes be ignored.
