Pros

Great diversity, stable company, known in the industry, flex time

Cons

Company doesnt value its people. You are just a headcount to achieve their ever-increasing targets. Any onboarding training or familiarization with the company is through a video link, making everyone who has worked for the company for less than 10 years stumble around blindly navigating the business and operational processes. Other than tuition reimbursement program and skills training, there is really limited incentive to keeping their employees happy. Holiday lunches are lunchroom events, and nothing much is being done outside of that to keep engagements up. Compensation is also pathetic, with a double workload assigned to each one because of a challenging headcount. People leave because of high expectations to deliver on a broken system, and especially as they can get a lower stress job with a higher salary elsewhere. Technology product they sell are troublesome with a lot of kinks, which they try to patch over with extra service from their overworked frontline reps. Come here to get the experience from a known company, but dont stay long. You will never want to, anyway.

Not as great as I'd hoped

Pros

It's a large company, so there is plenty of opportunity for growth for both vertical and horizontal moves. Ans relatively good base pay.

Cons

Inconceivably extreme micromanagement environment masked by the concept of "feedback". It's not feedback; it's micromanagement. I cannot make up that once I supposedly "used the wrong shade of blue" on a document. I even had internal Microsoft Teams messages reviewed before I could hit send to other internal employees. Get it right the first time or be castigated is the status quo and strangely accepted by everyone. Unrealistic workload expectations with a workaholic company culture with some employees even bragging about how late they had to stay up to work. You'll have no say into your own work. Do what the highest paid person in the room says to do, even if it completely contradicts previous directions from the exact same person. Hardly the best benefits, especially for a company that specializes in that sort of thing.
