Pros

Interesting work. Very varied, lots of opportunities for challenge, travel and career. Some leading technology, staff commitment.

Cons

Process often prevents work being followed to my satisfaction (and others). Judgment by targets has frequent unforseen (though entirely forseeable) negative side-effects. Employees are trained in ethics, but the board has failed to explain the new evidence which changed the company stance from 'no wrongdoing' to accepting wrongdoing overnight in early 2010.
