Pros

Great health benefits, tuition reimbursement plans and flexible work schedule depending on role with the company. In my role, I've had the opportunity to cultivate relationships with other departments and increase my overall knowledge of our business. I feel like I've been able to break down barriers that create departmental silos.

Cons

In this field, there are glass ceilings and very little room for professional growth. Even with excellent yearly reviews, I have always had the impression that managers do not want you to grow into professional roles. I have never been asked "what would you like to do or how do you hope to develop professionally". Instead, it is just assumed that what I am currently doing is what I want to do indefinitely. If you weren't hired into the company in a professional role, it is almost impossible to advance into one...even with a bachelors and or masters degree.
