Business Outlook

Pros

Job felt stable; company has been around a long time. Lots of policies and processes in place for those who like that type of thing. Worked with some great people.

Cons

Felt like a behemoth of a company in which it was hard to accomplish any kind of meaningful change. Trying to make changes is like trying to turn the Titanic.
