Pros

Good place for inexperienced creatives to develop good working habits (if they're so inclined)

Cons

It's like an abusive relationship; if you stay somewhere you're not valued for long enough, you'll begin to feel like you're not good enough to leave. (Also, the culture abounds with nerdy elitist white comedy boys)
