Pros
It is a place to go in the morning It is not a very competitive place to be and is very low stress.
Cons
It is a generic place to work. The job is very repetitive but it is better than no job at all.
Advice to Senior Management
It would be nice to rotate jobs so that they would not be that boring. Maybe do 8 month rotations.
Pros
It's only a job, we all need one. The company branding. The team structure is more about who you know.

Management decisions aren't fair and open across the board. Traffic is a NIGHTMARE! No opportunity for growth. Below average salaries.
Advice to Senior Management
Need to take management development classes. Try motivating your team with more positive feedback, and appreciate the work they do.

Good compensation and pretty good benefits. Geographically diversified, so there opportunities to move around in need be. IT team (worker bees) have a good rapport with one another.

Pros
Family friendly environment, very good benefits, including unusual traditional pension, decent pay. Easy to switch from one area to another laterally or for promotion. Employees generally friendly and welcoming.
Cons
Management style and philosophy vary widely between areas, as do opportunities for professional growth and promotion. Paternalistic environment means lots of deadwood around; employees who are unable or unwilling to do the job yet continued to be carried on the payroll and even promoted. Skilled and knowledgeable staff are often stretched too thin to compensate. Very frustrating to work hard and long while those around you watch the clock. Change happens with the speed of continental drift, if at all.
Advice to Senior Management
Return to more open communication with employees, rather than need-to-know and command-and-control. Get out of you safe enclosure, find out what's REALLY going on, and listen to people. You can't support the company's strategy if it doesn't exist, keeps changing, or you don't know what it is.
