Pros

Flexible schedule, ok benefits, good training, nice offices, generally friendly coworkers. Some advancement opportunity, especially if someone dies or retires.

Cons

Very political. If you are well-liked, there are opportunities. They don't consider actual work performance in that consideration. Also, expect to have your private confidential information hacked from their systems periodically!
