Pros
Get early info on product releases and plans. Get to be in the reality distortion field and understand how it works.
Cons
Poor management and development of employees. Politics rule who gets a promotion and who works on interesting assignments, even if the idea originated from someone else. A friend of mine was forced to leave after his bosses best friend was fired from another team. They had no extra headcount so his boss made mistakes and blamed them on him so he could be fired, and then replaced him with his friend. HR wouldn't do anything about it when they were told what happened. Similar stories abound there, and makes people want to leave.
