Pros

Good pay and benefits.

Great job if you land in the right department with the right people.

Cons

Lousy management.

Constant reorgs result in mgrs who don’t know the job, so they resort to a BFF / Inner circle style of mgmt to get their job done. Very cutthroat in some depts. Some folks will try to throw you under the bus at every opportunity.

Also, constant layoffs. No room to advance... and if you do advance, you may be laid off. Last in, first out in most departments.

Advice to Management

Top-heavy. Stop laying off the people who actually do the work and trim the upper levels. Keep an eye on the managers to ensure fair/equal treatment. Live by your credo and make sure management sets the example.
