Pros

Benefits are solid. Good pto, 401k, hsa etc.

Cons

If you work long enough, your bonuses start to shrink and your pay is stagnant so you end up making less year after year. Few opportunities for advancement or increasing your skills. Attempting new things and expanding skills, at the request of management, in my experience resulted in a bad review and no bonus at all after several years of excellent reviews in my previous role. This incentives staying put and not expanding skills or trying new things. Politics and constant executive shuffle in technology, where much of the work is zero benefit added work to change technology as required only to change it again in a year cause a new executive had a different idea, giving no value to the end user, is constant. Career stagnation is likely here.

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
