Pros

The work is low stress and the people easy to get along with. It's not an overly political work environment. Great hours in most departments. Plenty of nice perks and employee appreciation activities. Creates a very collegiate workplace.

Cons

Low pay and limited opportunities for advancement based on skills. Wish that promotions were not given out due to length of employment.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
