Pros

Pay and benefits. If you are looking for a job where you can just maintain the status quo. Some great people to work with in some areas.

Cons

Difficult work environment. Provincialism and clickiness in certain groups takes away from the ability to make progress for the company. Nasty passive aggressive middle and senior management in many areas. Mid-sized company with limited alternatives for career growth and areas of interest. Over the years, subject to cyclical business with layoffs to be expected every 3-4 years.
