Pros

Great opportunity for development if you perform, flexible working, good products

Cons

Some politics, leaders tend to be good at developing talent but not so good at performance management (i.e associates who's get up and go, got up and went) Business seems to be entering a down turn and CEO's insistence on self funding launches to ensure good numbers for wall st is destroying value.
