Challenging Company
Pros: Very large company that aggressively pursues opportunities. Global company. Interesting opportunities. Very good benefits and 401k options.
Cons: Opportunities are not always accessible. Moving into different areas tend to be challenging. The hiring process is very long and when employees decide to leave, staff replacement are not granted. The workload is just spread amongst the current group members. 

Employees are not compensated accordingly.  Despite large senior level bonuses being given yearly, mid-level management and below are not given bonuses.  Salary increases have not been awarded in years and no stock options have been awarded in lieu of the lack of salary increases. 

Employees are forced to take vacation prior to year-end. 

Training opportunities are limited to online, due to travel being restricted.
