Cons

Large organisation structured policies and processes - can feel overly rigid at times, sometimes feels like the decision the company will allow you to make is different to the one you'd like to make

Pros

Fiscally savvy company that withstands financial downturns

Cons

Too big for its own good

Cons

immature financial processes VERY silo-ed and bad at true collaboration.

Pros

Great salary, smart people, resources to do a good job

Cons

Too much politics, lack of agility, not wired for innovation

Pros

Good workplace technology to help with managing flexibility and different work arrangements, ie. job share and work from home Incumbent player with lots of opportunities and can work with cutting edge tech

Cons

Organisation is constantly undergoing restructure and management / leadership team is constantly changing roles like playing musical chairs. Not effective and no one makes decision, let alone good ones. Nothing sticks - good effort or change doesn't take traction and doesn't stick with constant management reshuffle
