Pros

Dynamic, interesting and complex work, multinational environment. Unique customer reach.

Cons

Very "Top-heavy" - too much VPs, Directors and Senior Managers. Too spoiled by the good margins and practically unable to drive change. Not that there are no changes, just the opposite - but they are shallow and doesn't position the company for the future. Spending a lot of money for acquisitions and new fancy ideas that after that simply fail and are folded down. Hiring easy, firing even easier - and this doesn't create a feeling for security and possibility for career development.
