Pros

The objectives of the work and the substance of the work involved. The salary and job security.

Cons

Highly hierarchical and outdated processes. Still predominantly male orientated culture. Resistance to change and an attitude where value is placed more on who is forwarding ideas versus what is being forwarded. Little opportunities to advance and take on leadership positions.
