Business Outlook
Pros
Being a large company, there is a good variety of work, and it's relatively easy to move around within the organisation. In my experience there is less pressure than in some other companies to do unpaid overtime, and reasonable job security (though less than there used to be).
Cons
Despite the efforts of senior management, there is still a lot of bureaucracy in parts of the company. There is also continuous pressure to reduce costs, which is often manifested as excessive outsourcing. Technical roles are becoming more and more scarce, with many technical people forced into micromanagement of offshore contracts.
