Pros
1. Salary(If you negotiate based on years of experience and not skill) 2. Exposure to new technologies(if you are very lucky to get a good project and team) 3. Unlimited paid time off and flexible work from home(depends on the team again)
Cons
1. Dismal benefits. Probably one of the worst healthcare plans amongst the big companies. 2. Lack of good projects(most of the employees at my center spent half of the year doing nothing which is not their fault) 3. Inept management(inability to get projects and zero vision to realize which employees actually generate revenue to the company. Stay close to managers and do their excel work to get promoted. Coding and executing projects will get you nowhere) 4. Nepotism(wear a suit, get close to managers, attend useless guilds to get closer to promotion) 5. Non-existent pay rise. Just forget such a thing exists. 6. Appalling severence package.
