Pros

Top Notch leadership programs. Great pay but would probably get paid more for same job some place else. Lots of networking opportunities through the various affinity groups within company. Chance to travel internationally.

Cons

Work long hours, especially if you are at the top. In spite of lots of talk about work/life balance, it is difficult to achieve it. Performance review is so long and complex you have to go to meetings in order to make sure you grasp the concept and do it right.

Pros

Well, you can always choose someplace else to work, but we talk about the efficiency and the valuse for the customer and the employee, not to mention the fringe benefits, which you, of course had to pay for as part of your base salary. Try to find out whats going on with the company for the long haul is the real issue...get laid before retirement is a real concern.

Cons

Good people at first, but later on the people all start looking like the very first time.
