Pros

Good brand recognition and exposure to new technologies.

Cons

Treat people like numbers. The "new culture" that the CEO is advertising, is either not sticking or is being interpreted internally as "continue with command and control, political empire building, backstabbing and inhumane treatment of employees... but smile while you do it and throw in a few compliments." The high stress political games are driving away the best talent . Executives care about what is best for themselves with no regard for what's best for employees or even the organization. The infighting between Managing directors is overtly distracting and causes huge technology silos. If a new executive starts that is even mildly ethical, its either beaten out of them or they are let go in short order.

Pros

Benefits and time off are definitely a plus, very accommodating.

Cons

Great working environment, but you need to be co cern every year when cuts hit. They rate you average if they plan on cutting you and it seems like the cuts are based higher on the older employees that have many years with the company. Growth was non existing, every year it was senior managers are not allowing any promotions even to 2 rating employees for many years.
