Pros

None! If you are lucky and get a company car allowance and fuel card, then that is the only pro I can think of.

Cons

Buy up companies, take all the IP and then have the annual layoff in September. If you are lucky to survive the annual layoff then don't expect a pay rise, sometimes you get a restricted stock option, but you loose this when you get hit with annual layoff. Managers are all yes men, always brown nosing senior managers. Veeps are all business failures.
