Pros

Working environment. People here would like to collaborate.

Cons

Office politics rules. There are many employees who are long in their tenure, thus knowledge and skill tend to resided in pep\ople not business unit per se. Often time, promotion occurs among peo\ople who is knowledgeable in their job, thus you need to expect you must stay long to get promoted
