Pros

Nice facilities, good people overall, benefits from day 1, and the vacation time is better than most.

Cons

Salary is very low considering the amount of work required. Work/life balance is often talked out, but nearly impossible to put into practice. Bonuses and promotions are awarded based on being a favorite of leadership rather than education, experience, or performance. The most vocal get rewarded regardless of actual performance.

Pros

Great benefits. Good salary. Good facilities and getting better. Smart, sociable co-workers.

Cons

In such a large company, things take forever to get done. Often it felt like my work wasn't having any impact or even getting to the customers; it seemed like it was getting entangled in bureaucracy. When I had an idea, often the response would be "Good luck getting that through legal/brand/etc"
