From a MS alumni...
Pros: Opportunity to work with some of the smartest people in the world. A fast-paced, goal-oriented company that takes good care of its employees. Great benefits and salaries.
Cons: Long hours, but that's a given. My pet peeve: just when operations are running as smoothly and efficiently as possible, management suddenly changes the process and chaos often ensues. So even though you're at the top of your game and management gives you glowing feedback reviews, it's only temporary euphoria because you're always striving to be "bigger, better, faster" than before.
