Difficult to get promoted

Pros

Great benifits, possible competitive salaries ( provided you know your worth - otherwise you can be taken for a ride) . This year HR stepped in to adjust salary, promotion decisions - for a change.

Cons

Unless you are driven, and understand the political environment, you can stay where you are forever. Politics is rampant - who you know matters.
