Pros

Good work-life balance, and the company takes care of you and rewards you for what you have done. Generally, managers listen to your suggestions as they would to your peers (not as subordinates).

Cons

It is a big company, and career advancement is a little difficult. A big part is, of course, your contribution, but at some point, it also depends on your manager's connections and ability to stand up for you.

Advice to Management

Promotions should become more transparent.
