Pros

Very flexible with work from home (at least in my group); 3 weeks' vacation to start. Lots of different career paths available.

Cons

It's nearly impossible to get promoted. You can apply for a higher-level job, but corporate policy prohibits you from having a higher job title (or the compensation that goes with it), even if you are offered the position. So...more work, same pay, and no more respect.
