Pros

Salary Benefits Work life balance Employee interaction Travel

Cons

Extremely political!!! The environment is very "cliquish". Promotions are often based on who you know and who likes you rather than abilities. No career pathing resulting in postions being open for long periods of time. One would think that a fourtune 500 company would run like a well oiled machine. The company does not live up to thier expressed values of caring, teamwork, and continuous improvement. Ethics is non-existent. I'm really sad to have expreienced such behavior.
