Pros

Absolutely none unless you get a team that has a good and encouraging line manager who does not indulge politics

Cons

1. Your peace of mind depends on which team you get and who your line manager is. 2. You have to suck up to those above you and you absolutely have to protect their ego. 3. You do not have a say if you're a junior. 4. Learning curve is flat after a few months and you'll only be doing a fraction of the work a certain function or domain does. The rest of your time is going to be spent 'aligning' with your manager to ensure you don't have conflicts
