Pros

Good pay. (Obviously, since this industry is very lucrative) Nice working environment. Very low turn over rate (pretty stable job) Good perks and benefits for staff.

Cons

Stagnant at job. Hard to progress rapidly, especially at the beginning of your career, with many people holding on to their jobs.

Pros

Good Salary, benefits and work life balance so far. However things may change.

Cons

Not many interesting things to do and sometimes you may feel you are at the end of your techincal career. The system will not let you take and execute fast decisions even if you are 100% right since everybody, even the people that is not involved in the project, has to participate. This only causes delays.
