Pros

Hard to find any pro at the moment.

Cons

Be ware - depending on where you work, there will be a loyalty tax - if you stay you will be paid less that new starters - unless you have world class buttock kissing skills and choose the right person to hitch yourself to.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
