Lifetime career with many varied opportunities.
Pros: I always had incredible freedom to do what I thought was needed and important within the boundaries of whatever job I was doing. Over the course of 33 years, I was fortunate to have many different types of jobs from technical writing to software test to requirements and design, and even management. Not many companies can offer that!
Cons: The internal financial structure is very restrictive and forces management to act in ways they might not otherwise. In the more recent years, the compensation and monetary awards weren't as generous.
