Great company
Pros: The best in the industry. That is a level of stature that comes with working at a place like this. Can have access to great contacts, smart people, the sky is the limit if you want to put in the time, effort, and make your job your life. Management at the top of the house is top notch.

And you are not making the salaries that the executives who are asking you to bend over backwards are making. In general, they don't value loyalty and longevity at the company. I've been a strong performer and always had solid reviews but am undervalued and repeatedly looked over for promotions and bigger jobs. And when they bring in people from the outside with inflated salaries, they just usually don't work out and I am left picking up the pieces.  I wish management would not have such short term memories and remember the loyal contributors who have stuck by then through thick and thin...
