Pros

Good pay, but only if you have a good relationship with management Some areas are expanding and have opportunities for growth

Cons

If you are not in one of the growth areas, there is simply no place to go - no defined career path In some areas, performance reviews are a complete joke - very little effort put in to reviewing the actual results achieved and who should be rewarded. This can work out favorably if you have the right relationships, or completely unfairly if you don't.
