Pros

The company have excellent benefits and is a good place to spend the rest of your career. The compensation is very competitive although the merit increase (raise) is very slow.

Cons

There are too many management. you have to go to 6-10 Tiers of management to get to the VP. The higher management basically just attends meetings so that he can pass on the information in the form of another meeting to managers below him. Most managers are not performers but are relay catalysts who just passes the command to lower managers for execution by employees. Communication is one-way and it is very hard to bring a concern forward to upper management.

Pros

Lots of job options once you are inside company. Lots of training options. Smart people. Good 401K matching. Fairly stable (not a lot of layoffs).

Cons

Southern California is a difficult place to live. There is usually a long commute to wherever your office is. You tend to move around offices, so even if you live close to your office, you will probably be driving far soon.
