Pros

They offer great benefits and compensation. You get the chance to visit many different places and meet a lot of wonderful people.

Cons

You have to work long hours to get the job done. I easily average over 70 hours a week most of the time. It is hard to find the time to enjoy the benefits the job is supposed to create.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
