Pros

Great tech, opportunity to learn, IF you can get into the right group

Cons

Slave-like hours can result, middle management is clueless when passing down "development procedures" to the engineering department. More concerned with their Excel spreadsheets, and stupid metric data rather than providing a positive working environment.
