Pros

compensation for entry level roles is reasonable, increases with promotions are barely 10% and result in them expecting to own you 24/7

Cons

If you are a free thinker, you will do better elsewhere. If you are okay drinking the koolaid, you may do okay for a while. Independent thought will be punished, and general corporate culture is less than healthy.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
