Pros

Excellent, knowledgeable, and professional employees. A strong culture of sharing knowledge and a willingness to overcome organizational boundaries to do the right thing for the company.

Cons

The measurement system in sales optimizes for the individual brand, which suboptimizes the effectiveness of selling solutions and pits one brand against the other for sales and services.

Pros

Associating with this brand name is just great. It will open many opportunities outside and if you work harder even inside.

Cons

It's way too large - over 400k employees. Which means its hard to get promoted and recognized by the top management
