Pros

There are always new and interesting developments going on, whether I am on the project or not. This place doesn't stand still.

Cons

Sometimes the culture of "politeness" prevents people from doing the right thing. The individual contributor is not really valued as much as the management track so we have people supervising who aren't good supervisors but have other great skillsets; apparently having them be supervisors is the only way to justify their pay grade.
