Pros

There are so many disciplines available. They are all about hiring from within, and this is a company where you could have a long career.

Cons

Depending on whether you are upper management or local management, this will influence your ability to offer suggestions about how your job is conducted. Standardization is required at all technical levels in the company. There is always room for improvements in operations, but at the local level, they are not looking to effect change. They are looking to perform the standard processes at the highest quality level possible.

Advice to Management

The company has become so large, and expenses are cut to the bone, that the company may "save" money by putting more money into soft skills, so that the workforce works as a team.

Bullying is always a moral-breaker.

And with the drama in society right now, bullying is becoming the norm. To retain employees, develop policies to stop bullying.
