Pros

Strong strategic thinking, very smart group of people, great shared resources

Cons

Impossibly complex internal politics and unwritten yet essential rules of engagement make success for an outsider a very difficult thing. You will need to spend more time trying to win the appreciation and approval of your fellow colleagues - from direct reports to upper management - than actually doing your work.
