Too political
Pros: Lots of cool opportunities to get engaged in truly impactful, global projects;  Good benefits (although they definitely aren't as good as they used to be);  a well intentioned, dedicated employee base; very philanthropic
Cons: Leadership is weak in many areas of the Sales, Marketing and Services... esp. HR Leadership.  Decision-making in HR is lousy and you spend so much time, energy and attention covering your rear-end that it just sucks the life out of you.  Its become a miserable place to work.  Lastly, the HR team is constantly laying off employees... it sucks.
