Pros

Great place to work, wonderful and intelligent people to work with, and very open communication. The work environment is also very laid back.

Cons

Sometimes it appears that things are not very meritocratic, as they should be. It seems the only way to really advance is by simply staying with the company for x amount of years. There is also a lot of bureaucracy to get anything done, as per usual with any large corporation.

Pros

Great place to start a career. Plenty of stuff to do and learn. Training classes and seminars are great for those interested.

Cons

IT work get tedious and boring. It's hard to move up, managers are going to stay in their position as long as they can. Sometimes there is too much politics.
