Pros
Work from home and be totally disconnected from people
Cons
Too many to list but here are a few Lack of actual project work is unbelievable, you end up doing change work which is basically support so forget working on a nice project end to end. No chain of command So called People Managers don't seem to do anything to help manage people or us but don't blame them as the role is new and they probably have not been trained to do the job. Empty promises to do some interesting work and progress career, apparently loads of work but doing crap mostly. Annual reviews are pointless and who wants to hear you "Meet Expectation". Demotivates everyone. Recent changes to Overtime mean you can't survive on the very average salary on offer. No real payrises in 3 years, less than 1%. If you are really desperate for a job go for it.
