Pros

Stable workplace, health insurance, nice office, decent salary

Cons

Workload has almost doubled because of questionable management decisions, jeopardizing quality for volume and leading to burnouts across entire team. No career pathway; promotion takes ages; no actual salary increases (~less than inflation, years in a row).
