Pros

High level of intellectual activity. Decent working conditions. Peers are really nice. Good location. Enough down time to catch up on news reports and headlines.

Cons

No praise for a job well done. There are posters in employee areas on motivation, positive attitudes and higher ups being available to listen. This is just a smokescreen. If there is a problem, handle it yourself. Don't see, don't tell if you find any errors.
