Pros

Worked with some amazing, creative and smart individuals. Not only in my office but throughout the company world wide. Some travel opportunities.

Cons

Position was not challenging. Middle management were extremely clique-ish. Promotions were given out based on personal relationships rather than merit. If you weren't willing to participate in the gossip chances are your opportunities for advancement were very limited. When I was hired, the recruiter and other interviewers skewed the truth regarding position responsibilities and travel options. Needless to say I was very disappointed and shocked on the first day of training.
