Pros

I worked for a division of Western Union for a big chunk of my career. It was a helpful place to learn about a corporate/enterprise environment. The benefits and pay were fairly good for my area: Bonuses, RRSP matching, ample vacation time and fairly generous extended benefits

Cons

Depending on which part of the company you work for, it can be hard to get promoted and/or define a career path.
