A Sweat Shop WIth Lots of Brain Power
Pros: Provides an opportunity to work with some extremely bright people.  Forces you to look at issues from every angle (sometimes to a fault), but is invaluable experience for career growth.  A great place to learn and then move on so you can advance in your career both level wise and $$$ wise.
Cons: No life balance at all.  Work, work, work at all hours, since the organization has most of its employees outside of the US you need to be available at all hours.  Employee morale is horrible (at least in the US) and the focus is always on costs...ALWAYS.  Those at the top are very well paid, with lots of incentive; however, the workhorses are not as well rewarded with pay and other types of remuneration.  Obviously, I'm not a long term fan.
