Pros

Most people are motivated to do well. You also get to meet a lot of people working at such a large cross functional company

Cons

It takes a while to get things done and innovate, so you need to be patient. You also need to apply for positions to move around internally, so you need to continue to do well in your role so you get a positive recommendation from your team
