Pros

Can learn a lot but stress is significant because leadership is mostly worried about managing their careers. HR is not your friend and will take down if they don't like you

Cons

Managers are promoted because they are someone's favorite not on ability. Very frustrating when your manager doesn't know how to lead a team and doesn't understand some of the details of your job
