Pros

-Biggest company in the world, lots of potential for advancement -After hours classes, development opportunities

Cons

-You have to be good at playing the corporate game to advance, doing your job well doesn't matter as much as drinking the kool-aid. -Developing yourself with offered courses / development programs is great but doesn't guarantee you will get noticed or even acknowledged. -work is very structured, little room for innovation (imagination at work, yea right). tasks become repetitive and monotonous and soul crushing.
