Pros
It is a place where you either work really hard or you are gone. Hard work is rewarded with great pay and opportunities for advancement. Training and development is abundant and available to all who show interest in participating. It is really a great place to be if you want to build a career and don't mind working your rear end off.
Cons
For the same reasons it is terrible if you just want a job. Low achievers, clock watchers, 9-5ers, prima donnas, and poseurs need not apply. I have seen several people get exposed quickly and managed out of a job soon thereafter. HR will protect you for a while, but you will be miserable due to peer pressure and the pace. If you are unwilling to put in long hours and actually produce results, it will be a short stop on your resume.
