Good place to start out, but gets old very quick.

Business Outlook

Pros

Large company, lots of different groups to work with, used to be a solid stock to own too. Benefits are pretty reasonable.

Cons

Very large company, feels very small. Not that easy to move around the company. Not a lot of sharing within the company. I spend a lot of time doing nothing while I was there, and a lot of my projects ended up getting cancelled after I put a lot of time into them. Pay raises are not great even if you work very hard.
