Pros

At this time there are really not too may pros. Whatever technology that you end up supporting within CSS you will eventually be an expert in. This is because you will see every single way how NOT to implement that specific Microsoft Technology.

Cons

At the drop of a hat you may be required to work past your normal shift because the management here cannot seem to staff appropriately. There is also now an unwritten rule that they must have 5% turn over every review cycle. So even though your team is understaffed you may notice that they will fire someone which goes to the whole scared at any time you will lose your job just because of this stupid rule.

Pros

Smart people all around and good location

Cons

No work/life balance. If you do not belong to a certain culture, you will not be hired, or they will push you out if you are already in. It's become a very racist toxic environment Doing your job very well is not enough anymore.
