Pros

Great learning place Great people to learn from A very large company with the real sense of a multinational. A very diversified portfolio that can take tough times and still make money.

Cons

Lack of courage from managment side to say no to bad initiatives and to admit mistakes. Too political and you need to be of certain heritage, origin, and some times religious affiliation to reach certain managerial positions. Lots of broken promises Not focused on retaining people. Not focused on training people Not open to diversity and different way of thinking. Retaliation for opposing managment opinions is a very common practice. lot of procarsination from managment.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
