Pros

Good pay and excellent benefits. Excellent training.

Cons

Management doesn't seem to care about what is going on front-line wise. As long as you keep your mouth shut and try not to make things better you will see longevity there. Don't expect to get promoted unless you know someone. Plenty of political hires and patronage hires. Tight knit upper management keeps the jobs between themselves.
