Pros

- The occasional overtime is compensated - Team looks out for each other to ensure work is not high-stress - Usually following good software practices

Cons

- Work is limited to what is available through clients - If staffed on a larger team, it is very difficult to be recognised in order to receive grade change (promotion). The louder (and better-liked) people will be more visible and the leads will not look out for the contributions of others - Adding on to the above, the system of having a Performance Partner (PP) who isn't on the same team makes matters worse. The PP will not know much about your work in order to give valuable input to you, and the actual leads on your team don't have an interest in your growth.
