Pros

Job security, leadership in its industries, good stock package.

Cons

Long hours, having to work through holidays & weekends far too often due to over aggressive schedules, serious issues with work-life balance, too many cases where a project deemed critical is placed on the back burner at too late a stage due to poor planning.
