Good company, but senior managers REALLY need to retire.
Pros: Pay is good, so are benefits despite the "take aways" from the employees with 20+ years.  It looks great on your resume, and you get plenty of process experience.  Most of the people are pretty smart.
Cons: My group is under the CFO, but not a finance function.  Our operations are hampered by the constant finance focus with little regard for the health of the operations until something "breaks."  There are a large number of processes to adhere to, and many people are trying to create their own so they can claim it.  They claim to only hire the "best of the best," but then you get in and now you have to become the best of the best of the best.
