Pros

It has a great R&D training program, which gets you ready to do some real programming tasks.

Cons

Chasing fast but sometimes could be cheap solutions, which may cause bigger problems later. Maybe different teams are different, but at least in my team, rarely see people put efforts on code refactoring. I personally feel that the open floor could be very distractive to me, earmuff would be your good friend.
