Once was a great company to work for.  Now not so much.
Pros: Great benefits.  Competitive salaries.  Many work from home positions.  Quality professionals to work with, for the most part.  Many opportunities available if your manager will let you pursue them.
Cons: Company wide "respect for the individual" is gone.  Decisions (including forced weekend work) are now driven mostly by meeting financial goals and quarterly executive measurements.  Primary corporate focus now seems to be meeting an advertised 2015 earnings per share at any cost, it seems.  Therefore, frequent large layoffs and common.
