Pros

All the benefits of working for a large company with a ton of resources, things like: tuition assistance, great 401K matching, great benefits at little or no cost (depending on pay level). Also amazing work/life balance, rarely work more than 40 hours/week except in small sprints and you're paid overtime even on salary.

Cons

very minimal drawbacks, pay can be slightly less than competitive because overall compensation is spread through a large number of benefits but the value is still great.

Pros

Great secondary benefits such as paid maternity leave and 401k company matching.

Cons

Health benefits become more costly every year. Raises aren't enough to keep up. Talent retention is very poor.

Pros

Generally, the work is fairly low stress. Rarely do I have to work over 40 hours per week.

Cons

It is a very traditional, old-school culture. There are many unmotivated and even disgruntled employees who are just waiting to retire. Things move slowly and no one wants to change the pace of work. Also, no one rewards you for working well with multi-functional groups. Those type of work doesn't get done until it's too late. Then "surprises" occur at the end. How about preventing the problems in the first place. Those "surprises" are not "surprises" at all and they are fully preventable.
