Pros
Salary and Benefits. Location. A sense of pride for being associated with the company.
Cons
Not playing nice in the sandbox. Back stabbing, wag-the-dog, and plenty of 'political theatre' resulting in gross cost inefficiencies and thwarted delivery of much needed results. Threatened (and unqualified) mid-tier management usurping large amounts of time and credit on extremely complex initiatives, then simultaneously not taking responsibility and muscling out the talent driving results. Measurable program results thwarted by crossfire: programs must 'run surveillance' to protect work. All the makings of a good Robert Ludlum novel; but not exactly thrilling when in the middle of it. On a different note, the company is caught up in own, yes formidable, history. This history, however grand, is past.
