Pros
I had a great time at POWER as a new engineer out of college. There's a large variety of projects, and I learned so much about technical topics and project management due to the distributed leadership structure. Even new hires can end up with quite a bit of responsibility, so if you're motivated and a good learner this is a great way to progress.
Cons
As you get into the mid-career level, at about 5 years of experience, there can be too much pressure to perform technical work, project management work, and mentoring without an appropriate raise in compensation. You cannot be an employee owner until 7 years minimum and need to buy into the program. This may be worth it for you or it may not, and there does come a decision point.
