Pros

Good pay and benefits. Used to be a great place to work where you were recognized and rewarded for your performance. Perfect job if you are not driven or motivated and you don't mind sitting home and collecting a good paycheck.

Cons

Not paid on performance. Majority of people are not engaged and sit at home all day complaining about paperwork and upcoming tests. Bonus is based on tests and assessment where everyone is graded on a curve and nobody gets any feedback on how they did or what they did wrong. If you are not willing to cheat on your tests then you will be a bottom performer no matter how much you sell or how good you are. Pipeline is not good and the few new products are not growing because the sales division is not paid on sales and doesn't care about sales performance.

Pros

If you can stay the pay and benefits are very good. Some opportunity to move around sites and business units.

Cons

Layoffs, outsourcing, and getting rid of people for as cheaply as possible. Not much company loyalty. Difficult to advance past the old guard, as they are almost always given preference for new roles or advancement.
