Some perks, but not the ones that matter most

Pros

Occasional chance for international travel due to the company having large offices in other countries - though this is dependent on which department you work in and your level

Cons

Your salary review occurs between your manager and theirs. You will have no chance to discuss your salary organically. This means you could show little salary progression depending on your manager.

Business Outlook

Pros

Some people in the IT department are really good professionals, with a lot of technical expertise and a very agile mindset. A group of people inside the department strives to create a better culture and are very active with nice initiatives like, hack days, lunch and learn sessions and a book club. This nice initiatives are tolerated rather than encouraged by middle management. The environment is relaxed as well as the work load

Cons

Very old school company Not really into the agile mindset, just part of the IT department behave agile Too much cost driven. Costs are sometimes more important than the potential revenue that incurring in that cost could provide Being almost a monopoly there is little need to constantly improve
