Pros

Good employee benefits, competitive salary package, good company values. Provides good employee stability and moderate to good opportunities to grow within the company, across business areas, etc.. Work / life balance is ok

Cons

Large Multinational can be slow in making business decisions, lots of layers and dotted lines do not encourage risk, takers. Can be slow to promote people if not considered a high potential employee. Lots of bureaucracy and god-fathering can be frustrating... spends to much time on internal customers vs external customers who move our business...
