Pros

The name is recognized in the marketplace. If you are young and starting out, you can learn a lot about process within a department, if you're a cute young lady, you'll have more options.

Cons

It's a political cesspool with egos to match. It's uncommon for anyone to present dissenting arguments because if you do, you can start the countdown on your career. Lockstep all the way.
