Pros

Very conservative company that is not known for widespread downsizing and typically will only do so as a last resort. Provides a pension (cash balance) plan, 401K match, and matches money put into HSAs.

Cons

Selective development of employees, not all employees get a fair crack at advancement and development oportunities.

Pros

MWV has high ethical standards. In general, leadership is willing to listen to new ideas in most departments. There are some very successful businesses within the company.

Cons

Corporate headquarters is a 'meeting-driven' culture. There are many professional 'meeting attenders' in Richmond. Information often seems to be over-filtered or over-messaged on its way to the top of the organization.
