Pros

The technical team is great, if cliquish.

Benefits are solid. The company is financially solid, and top management is sincere.

It has a large industry footprint.

Cons

Management is shaky at times, blaming individual contributors for management failures. It does not always give notice or severance.

Small cubes, crowded noisy floors, and it's hard to get creative. Lower and middle management does not get enough or proper training.

Advice to Management

Trust your technical talent. If you can't, don't manage them.
