Pros

Variety of interesting work; nice co-workers. Chance to see many areas of the company and different parts of the world. Salary and benefits were excellent. Opportunities for job training were also very good. Opportunities to work outside the US were also good.

Cons

Always rotating jobs; Company was always downsizing, moving jobs to foreign locations. entering a market to leave a few years later. Go ole boy network was alive and well. At times too many layers of management and very hierarchial.
