Pros

* salary and benefits are exceptional * get to work with a diverse group of colleagues * lots of volunteer / community service opportunities * flexible working schedules; good work/life balance

Cons

* far too many changes in the organization * little stability/security in position due to changes * can be inefficient due to large size and layers of bureaucracy * senior management seems artificial and distant at times * corporate propaganda is very strong and presented with euphemisms (i.e., slogans, campaigns, soundbites, "new ways of working", etc) * not easy to move up in the company unless you know someone
