Pros

Stability - you'll have a job for life if you want it. Autonomy - your managers leave you alone. Truly unlimited PTO - I took 44 days off last year and wasn't even close to the most time off on my team

Cons

Pay - The pay is absolutely terrible. No bonus. No stock. No nothing. Base pay is lousy.
