Pros

It can be hard for people to tell if you are working, because the codebase is so bad that it can take ages to do the most basic things. On the other hand, a lot of people work overtime to try and make up for how slow things go.

Cons

Filled with corporate politics, promotions are stalled by default. All the tools you use are in-house and ancient, so the experience you gain is mostly worthless. HR is nonexistent and will never do anything, even in serious situations.
