Pros

Training provided to new recruiters is very good

Cons

Absolutely terrible custom-built recruitment tool, metrics driven results in "garbage-in = garbage-out" in their database, to eager to reorganize and shuffle staff rather than develop their talent in any area

Pros

Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

Cons

Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
