Pros

If you hate working, you can do nothing for years and get paid for doing the bare minimum. Sometimes, when you quit they’ll give you a raise to continue to do nothing.

Cons

Roughly 80% of engineers there who have been there for over 10 years seemed to all have forgotten how to code. Nonetheless, will still be angry at you when you try to explain simple things like version control to them and they don’t understand. When you give them the solution, they will purposefully leave an “underperforming” review because they feel threatened by your competence. They will then ignore you for promotion for the next 8 years. Then, when they lose their tempers because they have the emotional intelligence of a 5 year old baby, they will blame you for not being “tolerant” enough of their temper tantrums.
