Pros

Working environment can be decent. Compensation is good. Developers are very hard working. Some hard-working folks around here.

Cons

Too much politics to go up any higher. On my first day at this company, I asked one of my new colleagues, what his role was and he sarcastically replied, "I don't do anything". I found out eventually that he really didn't do anything. His answer was truer than he even realized. Rewards are based on how close you are to the management folks. Reward hard-working dev folks as well.
