Graduate school without the degree
Pros: Fantastic collegues, an ability to make a difference and impact a project, challenging work, growth potential, and amazing benefits packages.
Cons: Salary not so competitive, more like a frat or sorority - especially at review time when it's like rush week, each level a glass ceiling to the next with it benefiting others to keep you down.  management is often in a glass bubble with no clue of what is happening in their organizations.  no incentive for teamwork or collaboration, as you are competing against coworkers for your review score.
