Pros

Big company. Lots of mobility between teams.

Cons

Mediocre pay and benefits. Not a lot of personal interest in employees, except when things aren't great. Also very elitist where CS degrees versus all other degrees are concerned.

Advice to Management

Stop basing people's worth on their ability to solve irrelevant coding problems and try harder to praise hard work and results.
