Pros

Good training. Good travel opportuity. Good for first 5 to 10 years of a career get out after this and before stagnation.

Cons

Too much emphasis on agreeing with bosses. Lots of talk but little support when it really mattered. Some excellent managers but some dross as well. Youre pretty screwed when you end up with a crap one for a year or two.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
