Pros

Good work life balance, overall.

Cons

Risk averse. Overly reliant on processes, approvals, risk assessments. Standard yearly bonuses (could be higher) Company-wide IT security policies sometimes hinder software development work. Too restrictive against employees working remotely from abroad, even temporarily.
