Pros
When things are going well there's a lot of autonomy, great opportunities to develop interesting things, and a lot of respect for work/life balance.
Cons
As soon as anything goes wrong, or if the org shifts to put a poor manager in your reporting chain (which happens frequently), things get ugly fast. Arbitrary firings or under-performance punishment, micro-management of responsibility with curtailing of power to do anything to meet those responsibilities, and more. Internal promotions are hilariously terrible. If you don't get the precisely calibrated project (which are always in short supply) that has just the right people taking careful notice of it, you're far better served boomerang'ing.
