Pros

Above average compensation including bonuses; great benefits.

Cons

- No work life balance or work from home options. Employees are asked to be in the office even when working late. - It takes way too long for promotions and employees are promoted to managers on the basis of seniority even if they lack the skills. - Lower and middle managers are often kept out and do not really make decisions. - The company is going through transformation and there might be more layoffs coming.
