Pros
It's a fun place to work - the people who work there are great and young-ish. The people are generally nice and work hard at what they do. The work can also be exciting and there is rarely a dull moment. Also, there can be opportunities to go to events, concerts, etc depending on the project.
Cons
The pay is low, the hours are long. The benefits (health,etc) are awful. Without a trust fund it is hard to sustain a decent standard of living on the wages/ salary in the city. Be prepared to lose your social life outside of work. Getting promoted to a "staff" position seems tedious and difficult to do. Many people (myself included) leave because of that.
