Its not easy to grow career in management ladder.
Pros: Benefits are good but they are repealing that in 2013. It is good place to start your career but don't stick around for more than 3 years.
Cons: Annual review process is very bad and not transparent. Middle management (leads) are the worst part here as they are mostly technical people with not much of managerial skills. That is not good news for an individual contributors.
