Pros

Big Brand Name, reasonable benefits

Cons

A number senior level Managers, Directors, and VPs are highly incompetent, they operate without adequate accountability and hide behind sustained chaos. As a result the poor performing staff continue to flourish and get promoted. Actions and Words of Senior Management hardly match. One of the worst places one could work for unless you enjoy looking busy, fire fighting to be the theme of the day - day after day and you don't mind 'boot licking' to get ahead.
