Pros

Comfortable Easy work Occasional interesting work Possibility of benefiting from a very solid infrastructure Very good internal learning programs available.

Cons

Career growth or salary growth depends on initial assignment of team. If you get in the wrong team, it may set back your growth by many many years. Engineers take on Application Testing have a really hard time switching back to Development, more than other company's application engineers.
