Pros

Good health benefit Paid vacations Paid sick leave Shut down on year end learning experience

Cons

Incompetent senior management Only few know what they are doing High favoritism If the seniors found that you are performing better than them then they you are gone Most of the people know old stuff which people used to use 30 - 40 years back They highly discourage high level engineers. If you have a Master's degree or you are a PHd then that is not a place for you.
