Pay was great until you have a horrible boss who has it out for you.
Pros
People I worked with was some of the best people I have ever met. True jewels to hold dear forever and they are still close friends I have lunches and dinners with even this weekend. The pay was great and the other benefits were awesome too!!
Cons
My direct manager was "difficult" to anyone that was not female. She got alone with every female on the team, extremely well and ran into problems with all but one of her male team members. She was a director and did not have the emotional management style to take care of a team, she needed to worry about managing her directorship and her career. Have a Manager (who was fired - uhm, I mean laid off) in between as a buffer so the staff of an overworked team can perform under high stress situations 24/7/365 without having a director adding more to it with her opinions when it was not asked for and often times, not really deserved. Many people have left this once awesome team, directly because of her. I reported her to HR, HR did nothing about it. I am not surprised.
