Pros

Flexible working hours Training and personal development opportunities Innovative solutions and highly competent people advancement opportunities if you are willing to wait skilled top management

Cons

beaurocratic low compensation organisation and positions shuffled around too often before you get on a management track it takes forewer (6-8+ years) to get promoted. Not much pay raises (if any except the ones legislation and such mandates) internal politics lot of incompetent midmanagement (and 1st level managers). No real leadership just number reporting low scores in employee satisfaction.
