Pros

Can be promoted, can have mentors, can find oppty's inside and out. They seem to work to make the environment friendly and fostering. The effort seems okay. There aren't opportunities for everybody.

Cons

Very boring place to work, a lot of homogeneity except in the more creative practices. They could stand to pay more.
