Pros

If you want a stable 9-5 job with no pressure to perform, this is the place for you. Flexible work hours, light work for most of year.

Cons

Once you've hit a wall, there's no way to get around it. The only skills that count toward promotions and growth opportunity are sycophancy and bombast. Genuine top talent wallows in mediocre tasks and reviews, and the incompetent stroll ahead by simply saying what management want to hear. Master Powerpoint and Excel, make sure your presentations have lots of colors and meaningless charts, and you've cornered your corner office. The company tagline, "Imagination at Work" couldn't be farther from the truth. This company is as much about Imagination as Enron was about Ethics, and Goldman Sachs is about Social Equality. If you have had the best year possible, expect a "generous" 3-4% appraisal. Bonus? "Haha, don't make me laugh! Who do you think we are, Siemens?" Bottom line: If you're someone who thrives in creativity and expects rewards for performance, stay away.
