Pros

Salary, health insurance, and pension fund are great. International environment with open-minded colleagues and many self-organised clubs to socialise. Not in the middle of the city - thus well accessible and a bit calmer area.

Cons

Management is old and hierarchies are long. Always short on budget. No flexible working hours, remote work strictly regulated. Low chances to change status quo. Budget competition between teams.
