Pros

Mostly stable. You have to be dead to not get ur 2.5% raise no matter quality of work

Cons

Now job development path in any department. You are just waiting for people to quit to pounce on a promotion. Salary maxes out at mid point of like careers locally. And will take you 30 years to reach that.
