Pros

- Compensation and benefits - Learning to deal with tough situation/executives - Growth opportunities if you are aggressive - Amazing opportunity to actually get smarter and think at a very conceptual level

Cons

- A very tough environment where weaknesses are emphasized and shared with everyone - Change/Transformations are non-stop, which can be unsettling for most people - If you don't have a great manager who's willing to have your back, you will fail epically
