Pros

Great work / life balance. Brilliant if you've got family and / or other commitments. Lots of flexibility and good pension / childcare benefits.

Cons

It's. So. Painfully. Slow. And. Very. Frustrating. Nothing really happens, and the things that do happen don't happen very quickly. Senior Management are very slow to make decisions. Too many personal politics going on between HODs. Was once told I couldn't change a process to save days of work because I would hurt someone's feelings.
