Pros

Good initial salary, bonus, benefits, vacation Evolving technology Well respected company Supportive colleagues to commiserate with to help each other to get through the day.

Cons

Salary freezes, bonuses paid according to cronyism; 24/7 workload expected Middle managers who are out for themselves only! One on ones are a joke, as managers don't want to hear your questions or feedback, they just want to load on more assignments. Employees never hear praise or appreciation - only hear about when something is wrong. There are a lot of two faced people there - especially in middle management.
