Pros

Pay, 401K match, vacation, nice campus. Great gourmet coffee shop with fair prices. HR group takes associate concerns seriously and tries to give managers what they need to be effective leaders. IT organization is large enough to offer both horizontal and vertical movement. Many leading technologies being utilized or actively pursued.

Cons

Not many cons but workload can be exhausting. Middle mgmt seems jumpy about appearance to upper mgmt, even though upper mgmt always seems very open. Focus on timelines over quality, and related stress. Limited support for off site training/conferences. Limited laptop offerings and can't bring your own. Personal WiFi offering is unsecured/open. Cafeteria has limited hours and is expensive, especially high-caffeine cold beverages which are way overpriced.

Pros

I received a paycheck as expected.

Cons

Training - non-existent. Management - I don't even know what to say - it was bad. They were there to tell you what you did wrong and didn't acknowledge anything that you did above the expectations.
