Pros

Good company to work with. Excellent health Insurance benefit. Generous vacation days and sick days.

Cons

30% work is non-value added, part of the reason could be the company is too big. You probably have to spend 50% of your energy to deal with politics.

Pros

Very talented scientists. Funding for projects, if you can demonstrate value, is not difficult to come by. Though it's a huge company, it's still easy to make a name for yourself if you're exceptional at your job, though it does take time.

Cons

Bureaucracy. It's a gigantic company. Very political regarding promotions. Nearly impossible to move up in the role you are hired into.
