Pros

Work-life balance. Respectable hours. Ownership over projects. The opportunity to contribute to the life of a project exists.

Cons

Work can sometimes feel siloed. Support systems rarely exist. Unfortunately, there aren't that many subject matter experts in any given department. The ones that do exist are tasked out or are too busy to help. Although the opportunity to contribute to projects exists it's sometimes looked at with little weight meaning if a manager thinks it's bad idea they will dismiss your idea. There is also a very real and very apparent toxic work environment that promotes those incapable of performing their job. Sometimes promotions come to those in a nepotistic way. Also, this toxic culture is overwhelmingly in favor of personal relationships. If you aren't a friend or casually a work acquaintance then you can have zero expectations of advancement.
