Pros

Standard methods, cloud infrastructure, and reliance on in house staff over contractors makes it very easy to implement safe, fast, consistent changes. You will be valued as a human and you will have a voice within this company. You can make a career here. Your coworkers and immediate leadership are all talented and intelligent individuals who actually know how to do the same work you are doing.

Cons

AI rollout and unevenly applied hybrid work made things difficult for employees with disabilities and those that lived far from office who had traditionally worked remote or for tasks that do not lend themselves well to AI overhead

Pros

Its a big company that does not hesitate to spend $$$ solving problems, because it all gets billed back to the customer.

Cons

They do not want to automate or streamline documentation because then it would impact their ability to bill customers for inefficiency. So knowledge remains siloed for the want of a wiki. Big scandal recently was a bunch of upper management got fired for trying to sabotage security.
