Pros

If you want to work for a company that will give you a decent work-life balance this might be the best option.

Cons

The majority of the business units are in cost savings mode and have done little to truly innovate their product line with the changing needs of their clients. As domestic development talent gets cut across the board, data and software products suffer from either (1) the constant transitioning or (2)an inability to devote talent to emerging ideas. This stagnant attitude comes from a company that has numerous cash cows and even a few monopolies. Unfortunately, the end result is that their products and services lack agility and, in general, seem to be losing their edge with their clients.
