Pros

Exposure to wide varieties of technologies. Nice people. Opportunities to hone your political skills. Lots of diversity, lots of different kinds of people to meet. You get to interact with a vast array of people.

Cons

Too much politics. Real workers who want to just do their job are not allowed to work sincerly. ITs a political jungle in there. Extremely vertical groups, each group only does their thing, and nothing else. ITs like wearing blinders to work. There is no sharing of data/information between groups, and there is a lot of back stabbing and back biting.

Pros

Great benefits and work/life balance if you're on the right team.

Having a bad manager dictates everything about your job. You will see no upward mobility or compensation improvement if you are under a poor manager.
