It's a big group with a wide variety of products. Internal evolution is theoretically possible. Pay is fine
Cons
It's an administrative monster with 19th century processes and inefficient organization. Ages away from lean. If you come from automotive escape, it' hopeless

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.
Cons
Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
