Soft comfy chair that gradually ruins your posture

Pros

Great benefits, tons of vaca allowance, good 401k, strong HR arm, lots of corporate distraction fun like volunteer days, swag giveaways and family outings...basically everything that has zero to do with the actual product.

Cons

The actual product. 15 years of inertia, apathy, and group-think at all levels have formed a bottomless tar pit for innovation.

Pros

Decent pay once you progress to a certain level. Good benefits

Cons

Culture encourages the absolute worst in its employees. Behaviors that would get you censured or fired in other positions are mandatory to advance here. Like to treat a fellow human like a piece of crap, stab them in the back, and scream in at someone in place of your own competence? This is the place for you. Also, don't plan on retiring here, you'll be removed and replaced by some kid out of college is you make too much. And perhaps most importantly, the final product is simply terrible.
