Experience level: Senior

Worked for the company for more than 15 years. Find a good group and a good manager and it is a fantastic place.
Pros: My group was awesome. Smart people doing good work. But the group was very small and was not well utilized.
Cons: Lots of bureaucracy.  The org structure led to lots of silos and fiefdoms. If you did not have a strong informal network of friends, it could be very difficult to get things done. Also, senior managers were not great at communicating and managing change effectively. The rumor mill worked overtime constantly, especially during RIF events.
