Pros

I had great job security. I worked on impactful products that people know about and use. The salary and benefits were great. I felt I was able to have a life and not live at the office.

Cons

It's a bureaucratic organization where it is hard to innovate. In many cases, bad management decisions result in poor products being released that don't necessarily provide the user with any benefit.

Advice to Management

Allow employees more freedom to create their own role.
