Like working for the union.
Pros: Documentation department is very stable and most writers have been around for over ten years. The company has good benefits and is very professional in how it treats employees.
Cons: Some organizations (like Consulting, and sometimes Sales) have high turnover. The company is a huge bureaucracy with tools and systems for every conceivable purpose, some of which are poorly designed and inefficient. Most middle managers are mediocre communicators who inherited their positions long ago when there were still opportunities to move up. Now things are static - only when companies are bought are new executives added. Some products barely work and are managed with amazing incompetence, yet no one seems to notice because the company is so big.
