Pros

good compensation which are in line or above market good benefits with great health coverage and low salary deductions fly biz class on trips corporate credit card so you never have to pay your own expenses

Cons

will aggressively recruit you and tell you what you want to hear to get you in too many "senior execs" who do nothing but push you and go to meetings a culture of "i'll talk to you because i need something" and border line college hazing before you get any respect their ESPP purchase and 401k wealth management firm is horrible and confusing they let you fly business, but as soon as a cheaper fare is found, you have to take it, even a few nights before your trip and it greatly affects the time you leave and the layover time (from no layover to a 4 hour layover!) no career path movement and growth - do what we tell you
