Pros

Good benefits.Good salary. Opportunities for advancement within the company. Many locations throughout the US and throughout the world, so relocation is an option if that is interesting to you.

Cons

Bureaucracy. Very focused on performance for the current quarter/current year without paying attention to the long term. Many managers are moved around in the corporation and have little knowledge of their specific area.
