Pros

Reasonable deadlines, good hardware supplies.

Cons

Lots of legacy code with no documentation. Hard to get promoted without being lucky enough to get included into meetings with higher management. Engineering job titles tend to be inflated - e.g. a person with 2 years of experience can become a senior se while earning 11k brutto, which is well below market average. Lots of time spent on superficial corporate discussions. Neglecting desperate need of refactoring and incorporating good engineering practices.
