Pros
Blue chip company. Lots of history and truly international. There are 2 arms to the business - Editorial & Information Technology. The experience will be dependent on which arm you work for. Reasonable career growth. A good name to have on your resume and a great stepping stone to another company.
Cons
Big sluggish machine. Although streamlining the product offering, there are still too many out there. Very much a Boys' club. CEO and COO are Harvard mates. Too many management layers and the 'fast forward' intent of weeding out old wood somehow also weeded out key creators within the company. Benefits vary greatly depending on location. Not a great payer.
