Pros

Learned so much from a variety of bright & interesting colleagues

Cons

Management actively makes each day more difficult needs to be. Deadlines are arbitrary which leads to undue stress. Virtually no training, then everyone is angry when you don't know minutiae. Morale is wildly low amongst examiners -- many are burnt out.
