Pros

As a company there is an enormous breadth of capability and experience. You rarely say no when a client asks "can you do ....". There are great career development opportunities. I've changed tack slightly a couple of times and always been accommodated and rewarded for hard work.

Cons

It's a big corporate, so you need to fit in with it's rhythms and culture. If you don't want to fill in a timecard, write a report or use a dashboard here and there, it might not be for you. You won't know everything that's going on. You won't be picked for every team. Cool stuff will happen that you won't be involved with. But if you have the right attitude some cool stuff will happen and you will.
