Pros
Great brand, good on resume Rest of world does not know about the internal dysfunction. You may acheive job security if you focus on core functions. Knowledge workers are used on 'projects' but not well re-deployed.
Cons
Lip service is paid to training. The training budgets are a lot less than the website statements imply. Do not assume that you will get the training you need to progress. Often training budgets are expended on management. Some departments, not all, have a revolving door - after growing/downsizing a dept every 18 months for 8 yrs one might find a better solution. There is a permanent HR team to deal with 're-organization' - it is a joke in the industry.
