Strategy and Marketing Director
Pros: Option to work from home is available to most employees.
Excellent benefits.
Outstanding legal department that both helps and protects individual employees. Excellent and reasonably non-boring training in employee obligations (intellectual property protection, insider trading, HR, etc.)
Cons: Raises do not keep up with inflation; over time, many (possibly most) people end up earning less than they did when they started their jobs.
Bureaucracy can be overwhelming, especially to employees of acquired companies.
Hiring freezes can seriously affect a unit's ability to achieve its goals.
For sales people, contracting is a nightmare
