Pros

You are typically given a lot of responsibility and the work is interesting, without a doubt. Probably one of the most diverse work environments that you will ever encounter and some nice benefits such as six-weeks holiday per year and some other allowances for families.

Cons

It's a huge bureaucracy and many managers are promoted up based on their technical backgrounds and not their management skills. There is always work -- too much of it -- so you need to be careful to create your work-life balance limits. Promotion can be slow -- there aren't always good opportunities.
