Pros

You can learn a lot in your field as you are exposed to opportunities. As with any opportunities you get what you put into it. At least at NI you can get them.

Cons

R&D management constantly make business decisions over customer impact too often. If you are raised through NI, you are told you are the "best and the brightest", even though you have no experience. So those who come in with experience run into a lot resistance and have to prove themselves more than the the "best and brightest".
