Pros

The pay and benefits are competitive, there are a couple good locations to work. Travel is readily available for those who are willing. If you are willing to relocate, there are many opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Work-life balance is not good. Even if you work your butt off to get your work done, you are still judged for working less than 50 hours a week. Many operations are moving to Asia - unsure of long-term american growth. The company is conservative, not a lot of forward-thinking, even though everyone seems to think Corning is the best in the world. Doesn't always feel like a high-tech industry.
