The place to be for new and innovative morale killers
Pros: Genuinely good people to work with at the individual contributor level
Cons: As a truly global country, all the money and resources flow to the growth markets like India, China, BRIC countries.  For North America, it is nonstop cost cutting and a short term focus on meeting quarterly profit objectives.  Example: No raises for North American based employees this year (raises handed out in June for the previous year's results).  But the company recorded record revenues profits and free cash flows in the same year.  How about sharing some of that success with all the folks that helped you get there?
