Pros

Coworkers are very talented individuals. Immediate supervisors are competent. Lots of interesting work.

Cons

Upper management is on a cost reduction spree and that means first your backup, then your position. Every time someone leaves they don't replace that person, so that means more work and stress for everyone. A single person can only plug so many holes in a ship...
