Pros

A large corporation with numerous opportunities in a variety of fields. If you want to move around, you would certainly have a wide range of lateral and vertical paths available.

Cons

The size of the corporation can be limiting - an increasingly large number of projects, services and initiatives are being centralized/corporatized in ways which do not suit every business unit ideally.

Pros

Depending on your position, the salary can be very competitive. Benefits are decent. Training - if you have time for it -- is pretty good. Availability and use of technology was great.

Cons

In my experience: frequent disorganization internally - I encountered many areas that still seemed to be figuring out their roles and how they wanted to operate which could create delays in whatever you may need for doing your job - no standards on process or project methodologies - many groups doing their "own thing;" office politics can frequently get in the way of communication and cooperation between departments; the job frequently takes over your life 24/7 - even on vacation or during illness, you're still expected to monitor emails and issues and call into meetings. You need to understand and decide what you're committing to before you take the job. Ask detail questions about a typical day on the job with your interviewer to get a better sense of what's required of you.

Pros

The people were friendly. The company recent;y merged with Reuters so it is a global company. The company is based all over the world. The company has many different occupations. The company has good products, and the customer service is excellent. It also is a company that is not in danger of going bankrupt. It's a billion dollar company. It also has a good brand name. That is identifiable to a lot of people.

Cons

The leadership was lacking in many ways. The amount of work required was very excessive. For example, after I left the position, they had additional people doing my job part time. They require employees to get up to speed very rapidly without providing adequate training for new employees. The heavy customer service focus is to the detriment of employees. The pay was quite low given the difficulties of the job and the complex work required on the job.
