Pros

Big global player with lots of interesting people, locations and tasks. Good to learn how to get things done with over 100k of potential colleagues.

Cons

Big global player, constantly under cost saving pressure. Produces a negative feeling about long term job development. One needs the right boss to press personal development hard against other parts of the company. All employee development programs are merely theoretical, nothing of real value comes out of it.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
