Pros

People are good to work for. Seniors are very knowledgeable and helpful. Getting a good project is all in the hands of fate. That primarily decides if you will have a good experience or bad.

Cons

The work isn't very exciting. It's a slow working environment. It becomes repetitive after some point. Work hours are frustrating. No work life balance.
