Pros
Benefits can't be beat (401k AND pension, unlimited sick days, fixed holiday from Christmas to New years, etc). Encourage lateral movement/career development. Offer classes and seminars to widen your learning/skillset.
Cons
Either you are swamped with work, pulling 10 hour days, or you're going for weeks with nothing to do. The people you need to help you with work or career development are often busy themselves. The result is that nobody seems to care about you or their jobs. My department was very specialized and so after a few years I felt I was stagnating, not learning anything new about the bigger picture. My coworkers are not super friendly. It's really a mixed bag depending on your particular department.
