Pros

- Good compensation package and health insurance. - IT and facility services are quick and responsive, so you can focus on work. - Many in-house classes and resources for learning. - Advance technology

Cons

- Bureaucracy and politics make day-to-day execution difficult. - Too many layers. Each layer has different direction and plan. Execution alignment is off. - Arrogance among the old timers. Will not listen to reason or if your title is below certain level. - Too much focus on status update and reporting of metrics that do not translate directly to satisfying customer needs.
