Pros

Engineer competency above average. Might be an above average career choice depending on particular group.

Cons

Almost a bureaucratic big company by now, driven by executives from other bureaucratic companies. Management at all levels tend to overestimate themselves technically and politically, not ready for challenges from latest technologies. Stock based compensation going down fast.
