Pros

There really aren't any. At best you could say that it is highly process driven, for those that don't like ambiguity.

Cons

A giant machine bureaucracy, with profit as it's only motive. Faced with extremely negative feedback from it's employees and trouble recruiting, they addressed it by rolling out a marketing campaign (100% SGS) to tell people how 'great' it is. It's not.
