Pros

Can't find any. When I left, I had no regrets. I was happy.

Cons

They try to reconfigure their development process, and it has happened many times. But nothing helps. Narcissistic management ruins everything. You will have no opinion on how to do things right, they will say how and why (because of the Firm principles). Meaningless processes in development just to sugar a pill for upper management. Nobody knows anything behind 1 cm from their eyes (actually, they do but don't want to waste their time on you). Everybody will try to find out the name who caused the accident instead of trying to solve the root cause. Coalition in your team is fine, nobody will try to fix it, even more, sometimes somebody could push the gas to make the situation worse. So, be prepared to be bullied, you will be alone. In general, a low level of expertise, trying to do things as much as possible, may be for the sake of saving their jobs because nobody will understand this legacy hell. But the Firm says goodbye very easily and fast. Don't wait for a raise, it will never happen if you are a line worker.
