Pros

Very good training, Learning experience, Work life balance, Facilities, Subsidised staff loan rates

Cons

Internal HR policies that discourage internal promotions and growth. An internal promotion will not give you the next grade and salary until almost an year has passed in the new role, whereas a externally recruited person will get the same immediately and probably with a higher salary.
