Pros

It's essentially impossible to under-perform, which means you'll never get fired as long as you don't violate legal or extreme ethical restrictions. There are lots of places to transfer within the corporation if you're needing a new perspective. They love having loads of management, so if you want to be a manager, you will undoubtedly get your chance if you focus on that path.

Cons

The relaxed and comfortable environment breeds less competitive performance. The very restricted environment smothers innovation in bureaucracy and red tape. HR seems content with minimal effort to retain talent, and even less effort to leave an impression on departing employees that would entice them to ever return.
