Business outlook
Pros
Fair overall. Ethical. Balanced. Good place to spend some time in a career. Acknowledges need for work-life balance and makes a lot of effort to retain solid folks over the longer haul when possible. Good benefits and training offered throughout the company.
Cons
Some challenges in moving around once you get beyond 5 years or so for most. Some promotions can be very biased. Tendency to tolerate less-capable people managers in some areas. In corp jobs, analysts and consultants masquerade as leaders. Finance is a power function. Sales versus marketing-driven. Technology is uneven - some divisions have better tools than others. Behind the times in computerized systems for retail branch use.
