Pros

Opportunity to work for a large pharmaceutical company was important in my career development and taught me a lot about how poorly management can perform and still pay themselves huge bonuses

Cons

All politics all the time. Hitting targets is not as important as kissing up to management. Targets were poorly defined and resources to achieve targets were withheld unless you kissed up.
