Pros

Good Pay. Work among some of the best in the business. Many Professionals in different areas.

Cons

Epitomizes the need for joining a Union. Wish I did. Security is lacking. C.Y.A everyday especially when working around the ones that failed to protect the CIO from their own game of thrones. Beware of Fake#News reporters, they're easy to spot, they're the ones sleeping at their desk everyday.
