Pros

There is minimal effort required to keep your job. There is almost no pressure to work more than 40 hours a week, and your peers are not generally terribly competitive.

Cons

Very little room for professional achievement / advancement unless you are interested in management or a facsimile thereof. There are a few ("advisor") positions which might have been used for technical advancement, but as managers have been free to simply offload their own duties onto those positions, they essentially become political junior management positions themselves.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
