Pros

Interesting technical projects. Good infrastructure/resources for conducting research.

Cons

Very authoritarian culture. Lot of back-biting spurred by force ranking. Frustration among majority of the researchers due to lot of "busy work" and useless meetings.

Pros

Good pay and a pension

Cons

Everything else. Benefits are lackluster, Flex Your Day policies are elusive. The company changes everything all the time so that a large portion of your time is spent finding new links to things on the portal, figuring out who to contact in various departments and in what country just to get a simple answer to a question. No one stays in the same role long enough to get good at their job. Morale is terrible.
