Very stable employer. I contracted here during the financial crisis, and I was allowed to stay for the entire duration of my 6-month contract. If you want to advance here, you do need to work your butt off and understand big corporation politics, but this organization is large enough that opportunities exist in enough places.
It's really hard to stand out. I hope you get a good tech lead and/or manager for this in engineering.
The executive team might consider trimming the bulk at the middle management level, which is true for many a large corporation.

I completed two phone interviews. They asked basic questions, and nothing was too difficult. The interview mostly focused on past experience. It seemed a little impersonal, almost as if they were reading from a script.

It was really cool how they did some things, and other things too. However, it doesn't seem like they like how they like. Sometimes I feel like they don't see me. The overall experience was insane.
