Pros

Compensaton is generally good. Work environment is generally low stress and friendly.

Cons

The culture is very hide bound. Decisionmaking is concentrated at the very top. Promotions tend to be based as much on favoritism and personal comfort as on competence. Career advancement can be none existent.

Pros

The culture is more supportive than competitive/toxic; quite decent work-life balance; good benefits - especially 401k; heavy emphasis on utilization of AI to support most job functions but with risk and safety in mind.

Cons

Changes are quite fast-paced and growth can be slow. Experience can be very team, project, and division specific as with any big company.
