Overrated but good benefits
Pros: One of the best benefits packages in the industry. Plenty of opportunity for improvements in products and services if you can work through the politics. Bonuses can be very good for preferred employees. Generally intelligent people to work with.
Cons: Very political and chronyism is rampant in many groups. True creativity, out-of-the-box thinking, and agility is stiffled by the company's bloated culture leaving them constantly playing catch-up in the industry.
