Pros

there is a Constant Challenge to over deliver results. Work load is quite heavy but you need to learn to prioritize. It is more important to deliver excelent results on 5 items than half finished on 15. The exposure to senior level managers is very positive as is the accesibility to them. Corporate traning is among the best especially in the Crotonville training center. And a given but important above all today is that integrity is impecable.

Cons

Work life balance is a real challenge. The company will demand more out of you, your job to determine priorities. The resources are tight especially the people. Very lean organization. Work for the 500 lb gorilla ... lots of competition and many people like you. Really have to outperform the rest to stand out.

Pros

Long term stability, good co-workers,

Cons

Heavy Bureacracy, promotions are demographically based - not merit based, scads of do-nothing people, no pipeline of key talent, pressure packed to get things done immediately, outsourcing crazy to the point that it's worthless, poor short sighted leadership - they've got their money & options and they're not going to rock the boat, below average pay for the worker bees. Short term focus inflicts permanent damage - case in point: Appliances.
