Pros

It could be your jumpstart as a manager or a specialist in certain area. You might learn a lot in very short time. Your first two-three years might be the most exciting experience.

Cons

There is seems to be a conflict between corporate culture that promotes everyone as a manager and growth in a specific area. You can develop yourself to be an expert - but likely company won't recognise it. And worst part of it, they can move you around without asking your opinion. Didn't happens to me, but seen a lot of people who faced either accept new job or leave sort of choices.

Pros

Great people who believe in a common mission. Strong leadership and support.

Cons

Budgets and decision making for technical programs are centralized at a high level with little to no consideration for how it affects individual programs and their unique needs. Heavy bureaucracy involved in setting up simple things.
