Pros

large stable company where you can maintain your position.

Cons

Beyond horrible people management. Colleagues spend more time trying to undermine each other rather than make the company more successful.

Pros

Big company - all the big company benefits like good salary, job security, being part of a coprorate world etc.

Cons

Takes a long time to get anything done because of the size. Also, processes are terrible based on old systems. Innovations is slow and has to happen through acquisition.

Pros

Great work/life balance, beautiful campus, decent comp (not competitive to bay area tech peers though)

Cons

No set salary increase schedule, lots of written "benefits" that never come to light (e.g. spoke to manager about getting tuition assistance for courses directly related to field and was told that the program was basically eradicated even though it is still written as a benefit),
