Pros

A large place with many different things to do, for those interested. It's what you make of it. There is no shortage of opportunities, but you need to be on the lookout for them - take the initiative, talk to people and proactively seek new positions.

Cons

Can be very bureaucratic. Layers upon layers of people in some cases. It often seems there are many people whose sole job is tracking abnd reporting on the few who actually do anything. Very over-staffed, and managers defending their turf.

Pros

Benefits & pay are competitive. Not the top in the industry, but good. Excellent opportunities for professional development for people who are self-starters and motivated to learn.

Cons

Business leaders use all the popular buzzwords and phrasing to assure you the business is leading the industry, but in practice Senior Leadership is hanging on to archaic business strategies like their lives depend on it.
