Pros
HR does a great job in providing "golden handcuffs" to experienced employees. Benefits (pension plan, 401k) are pretty good, and the job seems safe right now.
Cons
Career path is pre-determined before you start working there. Excellent work performance does not give you any recognition. Only if management really likes somebody (because of a nice smile, or the ability to endlessly talk smoothly), that person will get a series of easy tasks to accomplish, and that leads to promotions and recognition.
