Pros

It is somewhat fulfilling to see what you work on making the news when it gets launched. That is, if it actually *ever* gets launched.

Cons

The constant shifting of company and division directions. The next re-organization always sounds a lot better than the previous, but more or less just a reshuffling of titles amongst the same management team.
