Pros

You will get a lot of experience. My skill set is far further along than my peers. I have experience working on giant company changing projects. It is always changing so there is always more to learn and you will never get bored.

Cons

This company is proud of being lean. This is fine in itself, but it also drastically under-pays its employees, most other companies pay 30-40% more for similar positions that actually hold less responsibility. Expect long hours, to be functioning in a position where you are covering what should be several positions, and expect not to make a whole lot of money doing it. Work/life balance depends on your supervisor, but typically is not great either.

Pros

Benefits such as health/medical insurance

Cons

Massive company. I worked a couple different roles from the “corporate” side, even if I was in stores a lot of the time. One thing I learned is that the “office” or “corporate” roles don’t really have a day off. Sure, it’s a Monday-Friday job but it’s like regardless of what you do there, you’re on call in some way but there isn’t any sort of incentive in return. You’re likely not going to get a sufficient work-life balance working here, because, again, someone is going to be calling or emailing you on the weekend or in the evening where either you have to handle it, or pass it onto someone else who can. Lack of thorough vetting has resulted in unqualified leadership with challenging management styles that hurt daily team morale.
