Pros

Being a large company, there is a good variety of work, and it's relatively easy to move around within the organisation. In my experience there is less pressure than in some other companies to do unpaid overtime, and reasonable job security (though less than there used to be).

Cons

Despite the efforts of senior management, there is still a lot of bureaucracy in parts of the company. There is also continuous pressure to reduce costs, which is often manifested as excessive outsourcing. Technical roles are becoming more and more scarce, with many technical people forced into micromanagement of offshore contracts.

Pros

Benefits are better than most US companies. You get twice or triple the numbers of days off per year.

Cons

Focus is more on originating company location for group events and emails. Due to time zone differences, it can be difficult to work with others without adjusting your schedule. It is difficult to get promoted outside originating country. Roles are few and far between in the US.
