Pros

Being on the leading edge of new product development. Very competent workforce, for the most part.

Cons

Process, process, process . . . a big beaurocracy. Jamming process down our throats regardless if the process proves inefficient. Managers are forced to rank employees, but these lists of ranked employees are then joined into different talent pools of similar jobs/responsibilities, and then some senior exec who knows nothing about you, re-ranks you to fit in some pre-conceived distribution.
