Clash of the titans
Pros: There are pockets of great culture within different teams, and different lines of business. The training is second to none, and they provide you with so much material. It's not difficult to get recognition if you show your efforts of collaboration and networking throughout the company. Benefits and commission is structure is very good - if you negotiate well for it before you get the job offer. Quarterly team recognitions which helps boost team morale.
Cons: It's stagnated professional development - when you get a job, expect to be in the same role and same pay for a minimum of 3 years unless you threaten to leave (and even then you need to prove that you are invaluable). Managers do provide support, but you need to ensure that you are holding them accountable as well. Very process driven, so it can take weeks to get something done. The brand perception is an outdated grandfather's company, but marketing is trying to change that (which is a feat in itself).
