Pros

Many of the very sharpest people I've ever dealt with work here, and I'm very pleased with my current chain of command

Cons

Overall very cliquish and political; too many stuffed shirts in senior management, treating the people who do the work and make the money like serfs laboring in the fields, rather than as valued resources. Too much lip service and hypocrisy in areas like "work-life balance", and "development", when the reality you see on the ground is to drive everyone as hard as possible, and give as little as possible in return. The annual review process is a joke, lots of time wasted on eye-wash, when the reality is that promotions and monetary rewards are based on things other than performance. Lots of really outstanding resources are leaving because they're tired of being treated like ****.

Pros

Flexible, great colleagues, good HR training on goals and objectives

Cons

Depends on the group, toxic culture pockets exist, abusive and bullying behavior is laughed at and accepted rather than corrected, unclear strategy, business unit level vision is lacking, no accountability, several HR complaints against a manager go unaddressed, slow to change, can be chaotic, more interest in checking the box than hitting the right mark.
