Pros

Excellent benefits; really, really nice people; less political than other places i've worked; lots of vacation; extremely stable. I worked in a good department with a lot of flexibility. Lots of company sponsored lunches and events. Good mentor program.

Cons

Promotions seem more based on seniority than qualification, even in nonunion jobs; office is a bit stuffy. Working for a large company like this means every job is highly specialized, so the work can get boring. You have to really stand out and be proactive to get more varied work.

Pros

You get a pension. You can also go anywhere in the company. Management can be tough - as in there is a ton of work to do, but the pay is worth it.

Cons

You have twice as much work as you can do. It's super hard to get into the company. It's best to start as a contractor, meter reader, or a call center rep.
