Pros

Compensation and benefits, resources and support.

Cons

Sort of a sweatshop. If you're not careful, you might get lost in it; big corporation, hiring process is slow.

Pros

Pay is good and if you show up on time and write tidy programmers notes you'll never get fired.

Cons

Utter stifling of creativity and innovation. You're required to detail all time spent in programmers notes. Try putting in some notes about thinking about the big picture! It would be comic if not sad that humans are expected to work and act as automatons -- and dumb automatons at that, impervious to the fact they're being talked down to at every minute. I've watched really smart people who needed the money become shadows of their own selves. Oh and not to mention: the technology is antique.
