Pros: The team consisted of like-minded people (PhDs in machine learning/statistics/mathematics/physics), so communication and collaboration is very similar to what you would typically have if you were in academia. The application process was also one of the best I have ever had. The HR was very responsive, and there are plenty of concrete, helpful preparation tips on their website.
Cons: I can't think of any major cons.
