Pros

Nice to have my own office as an entry level I guess

Cons

- completely outdated model and process for developing software - absolutely terrible middle managers - everyone is old - there is no innovation here - developers are basically mechanics, who are TOLD by program managers what they should build, and they are not involved in the design process AT ALL

Pros

Lot of good things. As a lover of technology, you have lot of things to work on. Lot of different challenges to excite you Excellent Pay

Cons

Politics is the biggest problem. Doing good work is rewarded less than making connections. There is too much hierarchy in management to prevent you from being visible.
