Pros

largely depends on manager. Work can be super boring or some-what interesting. WLB depends.

Cons

Good if you want to retire, and work 40hr/week with minimal stress if you on good team. Bad if you are super ambitious. Lots of bureaucracies... lots. Slow to build anything. Old architectures....

Pros

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

Cons

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.
