Pros

It is going down and down, but will be shown by management as being "up and up"

Cons

This is a company with reverse pyramid. In this company you will find 20 VP's, 40 Senior Directors, 120 Directors, 280 Senior Manager, 1200 Managers followed by 1000 employees. When they have to cut people all folks at the tops will be protected, and anyone doing the real work will be let go. Ninety percent of managers or senior managers do not have any college degree (at the most associate) and cannot either provide technical direction or do anything for people growth. This company is all about "shares buy back" to boost "artificially" stock price, increase dividends, sell businesses whenever nothing works.

Pros

I highly value the autonomy I am given to manage my own workload, and I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with several of my talented colleagues.

Cons

That independence comes at a cost. The company is incredibly disorganized and siloed. Management will force lateral moves on you without asking; I've ended up balancing four different roles with absolutely no pay increase. Requests for fair compensation compared to the peers I trained were completely ignored. Territories change constantly, but zero training is provided. You are essentially left entirely on your own to figure it out.
