Microsoft: Big, Slow, Stable.
Pros: Health benefits and general stability. Benefits are completely covered, to the point of no copay for prescriptions. Although the company is slowing down (and not minting millionaires anymore), it's size makes it quite stable.
Cons: The company has become bureacratic and it can be painful to get things done. It's not possible to just "do the right thing" and be rewarded as it once was.
