Pros

Incredible influence over team and company direction. Smart, technical management has a keen ear to bright ideas with the right justification. Senior and Principal engineers are expected to code.

Cons

Cross cutting changes can be very difficult. Freedom to choose your own path and sooooo many opportunities can lead to too many plates spinning if you don't watch out.
