Pros

Massive company, deep technical resources and worldwide presence. Be flexible, market yourself and opportunities are plentiful.

Cons

Massive company, listed on stock market so quarterly financial pressures. Be aware that as a listed company your relationship with the organization is purely for the cash.

Pros

The co-workers are nice, competent people. Benefits are good, Salaries, vary greatly, from good to God-awful.

Cons

Unbelievable. Really! They have absolutely NO CONCEPT of employee development. They make a big deal out of creating a project management accreditation program but then don't fund it from the corporate level. They make the regions foot the bill for this MANDATORY accreditation, then allow the regions to cancel the classes because it impacts the utilization rate. By the way, it is a 2 day class that is only offered on Friday-Saturday, so everyone who attends is expected to give up their Saturday "for the good of the company"! If you are not billable, you WILL be gone.
