Pros

Very well managed and organized. Lot of knowledge available to gain from everywhere. Lots of room for growth. Perks are good.

Cons

Very old company, so lots of legacy applications and protocols.

Teams and work are organized, but there are overlaps as multiple teams are doing the same work.

Individual motivation to stick is less (less is done on the overall development level of an individual).

Mobility internally is not great.

Advice to Management

There is a lot of potential with individuals at the firm, and lots of great knowledge resides within it. However, as some of the protocols are too rigid, it becomes too difficult for individuals to raise ideas and contribute something other than assigned work to the company.
