Pros

- They have great compensation and benefits - beautiful NJ campus - many international locations - internal mobility is starting to pick up, certainly much better in the past few years.

Cons

- sometimes being TOO risk adverse is not a good thing as it gets in the way of making decisions and creates a lot of additional (sometimes meaningless) tasks.

Pros

Many good opportunities for growth within the company. Big and necessary changes made in the past 3-5 years that allow the company to remain highly-competitive in the market and to potential recruits.

Cons

Still many people who believe the company owes them something because they have not worked in other industries or for other companies and seen how businesses have been forced to adapt in the last decade. If a company isn't evolving, they are falling behind.
