Pros

It can be a place to start getting experience in the IT field.

Cons

This could be a problem with any large corporation, but it can feel like there is little or no forward progress when working on projects. IT only gets in trouble when it delivers something, so many old and ineffective programs stay in place because there isn't much motivation to get things done. There is always big talk about the next project, but most of the time nothing comes from it.
