Pros

Stable, conservative, no big risk taking, fair, ethical, the company is fair and tries to do it's best for its employees

Cons

Good old boys network, can fall out of favor easily, fast track positions are given to select few from corporate, it's nearly impossible to get a P&L role unless your an MBA recruit. If you don't fit the management mold in terms of thinking and presentation you're never going to advance. Make a lot of good looking charts and you'll get promoted - I've rarely seen a closed loop in terms of whether a business manager accomplished what they presented.
