Pros

Interesting and challenging work, the company is the leader in it's industry, and growth prospects for the future are very promising. It is a very high performance culture that encourages risk taking and innovative thinking.

Cons

Large company that can sometimes be bureaucratic and frustrating when working across organizational boundaries. There are still some slackers on staff who have not been managed out of the business, however the resource actions in the last couple years have started to address this problem.

Pros

If you are strong performer you will be compensated and recognition will come your way. If the job you want is not there, you have the ability to create it. Incredible flexibility in work hours.

Cons

Sometimes slow to get executive attentions, but once it starts be prepared to work non stop until its resolved.
