Great colleagues. Great benefits. Good compensation. Decent work-life balance. Some software projects are interesting. Lately, they are improving how software projects are run. There has been some relaxing of the unending emphasis on Time-to-Market (i.e., deliver something ASAP) to actually taking the time to build something cool.
Old and proprietary technology. There is no way around this.

Management is rigid, and there is quite a bit of politics.
Not always a meritocracy – more like a favoritocracy. But that is a fact of life everywhere.
Big brother atmosphere, where everything is monitored. Lately, this has been improving.
The direction over the last couple of years has been positive, with the work environment improving. Keep moving in that direction. Market conditions will be a challenge, and hence attrition becomes doubly expensive.
