Pros

No real expectations. The only way you will get fired is if you do something illegal other than that just keep your head down and wait your time.

Cons

They actually encourage turnover due to they way their pension is set up. They contribute to "your" pension from day one, however if you do vest then you forfeit that money to the plan. Hence most departments have 30% turn over and the call center is around 90%!!

Pros

Good benefits. Decent work life balance.

Cons

Way too much politics. People are often promoted based on internal politics or the desire to have diversity numbers, rather than on ability. Pay is far from fair and annual raises are a joke. You never really feel like a valuable member of the company, and the semi-annual evaluations are an absolute joke. They are so subjective on whether or not your supervisor likes you that it’s not even funny- and frankly outside of an opportunity to hear how poorly you are kissing up they are meaningless.

Challenging position

Pros

You have all the resources available to you to be successful. Lots of opportunity for advancement if your willing to travel or relocate, good compensation, uplifting environment, and good benefits.

Cons

Can never reach the market pay (average pay for industry standard). It's a carrot they dangle out there but you'll never be able to reach it. About 80% of performance evaluation is subjective so if you have a supervisor who doesn't like you, then your performance evaluations will never be good and compensation will be impacted. You'll hear about their wonderful pension, but It is screwy. The amount you receive from your pension is reduced by other sources of retirement income.
