Pros

Pay of course. The name means something; means you are successful. (But thats it)

Cons

Lacks Diversity Big Time (not just color, personality and just flat out differences) Very cold environment and not people friendly. Has few support networks for minorities and younger people; most of which are poorly organized and lacks leadership. Needs some re-vamp to the ranking system (I think everyone agrees to this one) Training - well there is none in my opinion; ur just winging it! Young engineers are expected to be politicians and you know what funny money is early on; I like to be the innovator so you can play monopoly in the corner by yourself. Realized that most people die two years after retiring (if you work at a plant like I do)...uhh not a happy thought!

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.
