Pros

little accountability, poor job of talent management so lots of dead weight being carried (great if you want to coast)

Cons

salary and benefits not competitive with other majors, management's perception of how things appear is much more important than reality, highly political culture--it's not what you know or how well you do your job that counts--it's who you know
