Pros

Amazing Compensation and Benefits, Fantastic Leadership, Rewarded for Hard-Work, Opportunity for Career Growth, Positive and Motivating Work Environment.

Cons

You will not enjoy this position if you do not enjoy hard work. Very rewarding position if you work for it, but don't expect this to be a position where you can just get by doing the bare minimum.
