Pros

good work-life balance, competitive pay, nice office.

Cons

The majority of the advancement opportunities are continually hand fed to a select few people. Either be one of the chosen ones or plan to get dumped on again and again. Oddly enough, the few people that seemed to get all the handouts also had a parent working in senior leadership. Funny how that works, huh?
