Pros
Opportunities for moving within the company across businesses abound. There is a great deal to be learned from the many employees who have been there for 30+ years - excellent information sharing across businesses. Generous benefits.
Cons
For a company so well known for innovation, resistance to new ideas in some businesses is perplexing. The culture promotes stagnancy in many respects. It is often those who don't rock the boat and can play the internal politics game well who rise to the top. Senior Management often lacks the impressive resume and accomplishments found at other peer companies. Compensation for internal positions often falls far short of what is paid to external candidates.
