Pros

Co-workers are generally a helpful bunch, and the atmosphere is pleasant. There are some opportunities to move around, if you can network your way in.

Cons

Overall there seems to be a general lack of direction. With a maturing market there needs to be some more leadership in what the strategy should be.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
