Pros

No pros to speak of.

Cons

Only the inner circle is rewarded with huge compensation. The only thing important to management is to fool analysts into believing the hype so that the stock price will rise. No concern for corporate culture, employees, or anything other than paying the top ten as much as possible. Three things are important: 1. Buy an existing company 2. Fire as many people as possible. 3. Increase fees as high as the market will bear. This is not a real corporation, it is a private equity fund. Inept management that gauges customers and fights over who gets to fly on the private planes. A house of cards, ready to fall. Expect the NYSE floor to be sold to Apple to create a store.

Pros

Giant international corporation with unlimited resources. Multiple locations around the country and the globe with tons of jobs that are open for internal transfer (with some considerations). Generally high pay range.

Cons

Giant international corporations treat you as an unlimited resource. They use "Unlimited PTO" model for Sick and Vacation time, which I feel is a misnomer and a disingenuous concept as a whole. Unrealistic fixation on making employees use AI with no clear plan or direction on how it should happen.
