Pros

If you need to break into new areas, there may be opportunities here, if you can find management sponsorship, but that will be challenging.

Cons

Rules will prevent you from accomplishing much of anything. There will be constant interruptions, profound political resistance to any substantive innovation, 100 hour work weeks, and no flexibility.
