Great for the best technology in the industry. Pay is good.

Due to current market rates, not a good time to get in the industry. Management tries to downplay the seriousness of the situation. Long hours. Can be dirty and demanding at times.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
