Pros
* excellent pay * outstanding world classed benefits * really exceedingly good food * plays hard * if you are in the right orgs, its easy to work 30-40 hours a week and go home to your family
Cons
* mediocre talent that thinks it is world class. the truth is they have a monopoly business that was built years ago and they can't innovate on product or enter new markets. * the teams are bloated and fat to the point of ridiculousness given their level of output. * execs are silo'd and not aligned. this causes a huge amount of wasted effort at the middle and lower levels. * incredibly political but pretends that they have a winning transparent culture. This comes from the top. spin matters more than results which the company can't measure.
