Pros

They do pay well and offer decent benefits and stock options.

Cons

They will treat you like a number and layoffs are more prominent now. They are favoring AI over people. They restructure often and even when making significant profits, will lay off people. Also, return to office mandates are a way for them to avoid paying severance or unemployment.
