Pros

* Opportunity for professional growth - the company entrusts you with multifaceted responsibilities * Provides sufficient non-financial freedom to perform your work (within company policies of course) * Provides a good platform for internal & external networking

Cons

* Too centrally controlled, almost extreme. Very low empowerment down the ladder * Lack of 'developmental' training * Poor knowledge management, you get information only through your informal networks * Work-life balance, & pay does not compensate for it * Filled with dead-woods, company does not do anything about, they survive and lots of times thrive by just managing their managers' perception * Inequitable work distribution
