Good place to work, but not without its problems
Pros: Lots of different areas to transfer to once you're ready for a new challenge. Pay is decent and benefits are great. If you can get in with a good team and good manager, it can be an awesome place to work. And yes, there are still some of those around.
Cons: Sometimes a very closed minded organization. Disfunctional groups throughout the company. Many people with over inflated pay grades. Incompetence at all levels. Groups can be hostile towards one another because of the ultra-competitive nature within the company.
