Pros

You can experience how a leading edge semiconductor company operates. A lot of interaction with major equipment suppliers and opportunities to work with some excellent engineers...before they leave soon

Cons

This company is like a dead meat or prey to different groups of people from failed companies. One group of people from a failed company shows up, draws cash from the company and leaves. And next group of people shows up and doing the same thing and it repeats. The owner doesn't know anything about semiconductor and the management try to get as much money as they can during their stay without long term vision to make this company successful. No strategy or competence in management... directors and above.
