Pros

Good place to start out with a solid, but manageable workload. People within the company are friendly and easy to work for and with. Good benefits and retirement matching program. Management seems to genuinely care about their employees. Compensation is good for the most senior positions within the company.

Cons

Entry and some senior level salaries are really not up to industry standards. There are opportunities for advancement in project responsibility and difficulty, but compensation lags behind competency growth pretty significantly. Good place to start out and learn the industry, but you may hit a ceiling within the first few years depending on the office. It's a large company, so to the corporate guys you are a data point with productivity numbers you are expected to hit. These numbers have a huge effect on raises and bonuses allocated to the offices as a whole, with less emphasis placed on technical proficiency or work quality.
