Pros

Great benefits, good co-workers, and excellent equipment.

Cons

Their habit of promoting people to management without giving them any management training produces a lot of mediocre, at best, and bad managers, at worst.

Advice to Management

Train your mid-level managers. Don't just let them sink or swim. Bad managers just create bad blood.
