Pros

* Good leadership development programs and entry level opportunities * Exceptional Peer group - you will work with some of the brightest individuals in your field * Solid reputation and strong focus on integrity * Very attractive to recruiters if you eventually decide to leave

Cons

* Performance Mgt process at times misses the true under performers due to risk * Stock has been flat for far too long - no longer a retention tool like in the past * The requirement to relocate can place a burden on the employees - especially in today's environment where housing prices are no longer appreciating at record pace like in the past

Pros

Lots of opportunity for growth. Do not have to stay in a job for years while you are bored. The benefits are very good as well. It is one of the few companies that still offers a pension as well as a 401-K. I am only 31 and this is VERY important to me.

Cons

There are sometimes a lot of "politics" which comes with most companies. Job pressure is greater than average. I think that people often work longer than average hours for average pay (although with benefits I think it is competitive in my area)
