Pros

Great Benefits, good work / life balance. Strong expertise in different technologies and opportunities to continue to get training in various areas.

Cons

Because the company is big, you tend to be compartmentalized in the work you do, with little exposure to other areas of work. You can always go out of your way to learn other areas, but will likely not be given official responsibility to work in that area.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
