Pros

- In Mobility, most people are friendly and a fun bunch - Most managers do allow for flexible time if you need to be home

Cons

- pay is sub-par when compared to industry standards; as well as VERY not uniform across departments and teams (even when your job function is the same and work under the same director) - no opportunities for career advancement and even though they say they support career development, most management does not practice that. They'll only do it if there's something in it for them - promotions and raises are VERY NOT objective - too much power in marketing, thus a lot of decisions are not made for the best of all the teams - knowledge gap across departments - high # of people in management either lacks skills & knowledge or leadership or both - company puts too much resources (including $) into the "leadership development program" - where new-grads going into these programs often have unrealistic expectations (i.e. people want to become managers after going through the 2 year program)
