Pros

Slow Pace Low Stress Environment Good Salary

Cons

If you like to get things done, it's very hard to move the needle. Everything goes at a slower pace. The technology stack is old, and the security requirements disrupt the workflow, making it tedious.

The biggest issue, if you want to carry on as a solo contributor, is that there is a ceiling in salary that you hit, and there's no more progression after it.
