Pros
Salary - it is better than most of the employers BUT doesn't beat the top notches.
Cons
Micromanagement redefined - you will eventually have to agree with higher management's idea or be ready for lengthy discussions on the same topic lasting anywhere from 2 hours to infinite. Goes to the level where even buying a very simple office item ends up in a two weeks' "review." Extremely paranoid - they feel pride in saying they don't trust anyone and you will know you're part of that "anyone." No trust shown in terms of anything related to work/office whatsoever; even the longest serving employees know no details about anything. You need to report each and everything in absolute detail; initially you'd be asked only to provide general update but that will eventually finish into the deepest detail you could provide. Extremely controlled work environment - even where and how you sit needs to be defined by the highest level of management. You will feel like your hands are tied behind and you still need to produce at your best. I assume you guys are imaginative enough to think of the consequences! Confidence reaching arrogance - the confidence reaches arrogance for what they have produced. And that leads sometimes to publish misleading reports. Even good change not welcomed - almost impossible to bring any change because of the points mentioned above. And the main reason they still have a legacy system they are proud of. No fun at work - be "professionals" is the mantra. And that means not even talk about anything else. And when the higher management isn't around everyone just let lose.
