Pros

Secure in my job, benefits are excellent, including multiple retirement packages and health plans that include HSA with employer contributions. Opportunity to work on a variety of different projects affecting many different fields of work.

Cons

Can be slow and boring, lots of "left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing" issues with accomplishing tasks or getting approval, drama between various departments.
