Pros

(1) Great on-boarding and training opportunities; (2) Excellent benefits; (3) Large corporation (Fortune 500); (4) Cutting edge in terms of industry.

Cons

(1) No space for individual creativity (you need to follow standard policies and procedures); (2) Limited autonomy, all decisions appear to be consensus-driven; (3) Advancement can be challenging in that you need to demonstrate competency for next level before you are promoted, but cannot demonstrate as few tasks are available or assigned "downward".

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
