Pros

An extra week off at X-mas and a few holidays. School snow days. Laid back atmosphere. Performing at a high level is optional. New/Different technologies are always being deployed.

Cons

Benefits and pay are not comparable to corporate equivalents. High turnover, low incentive to outperform your peers or even do more than the bare minimal. Metrics and stats on your work are rarely or never given any weight. Most times they aren't even seen by your manager. You will only ever get a cost of living raise and there are no bonuses.
