Pros

If you perform well, you have lots of latitude on how you do your work. Lots of opportunities to try different work approaches. Pays well, good bonuses. No micromanaging.

Cons

Top-down decisions made with little regard for how it affects the line. Very volatile - lots of reorganizations and layoffs. Very competitive environment. Sometimes coworkers feel like competition.
