Pros

Easy to get away with doing nothing. That’s what upper management does all day

Cons

Competitive environment. Unfriendly. Depending on how liked you are you can get away with barely doing any work but they’ll randomly decide to focus on individuals and start blaming you for poor decisions made by managers.
