Pros

Competitive starting salary, good cafeterias in McLean

Cons

Culture of treating VPs like A-List movie stars, "consensus culture" means slow and opaque decision-making, performance review cycle destroys team cohesion and makes you constantly watch your close co-workers for who is going to stab you in the back every 6 months.
