Pros

In general, senior technical colleagues are very competent. Benefits are good. Funding for research projects are generally available and not too difficult to get if management sees values.

Cons

Military like management and ranking style kills innovation and collaboration between colleagues. Not a place to conduct fundamental research. Very short time thinking. IT support is horrible at best.

Pros

Good pay and a pension

Cons

Everything else. Benefits are lackluster, Flex Your Day policies are elusive. The company changes everything all the time so that a large portion of your time is spent finding new links to things on the portal, figuring out who to contact in various departments and in what country just to get a simple answer to a question. No one stays in the same role long enough to get good at their job. Morale is terrible.
