Pros

Big name, good for resume

Cons

- pay is below industry average - although the firm PRs its friendly culture, it really is hierarchical - your boss won't care about your personal goals, thus you won't have a real career here - a lot of people working here are massively underqualified

Pros

Respectable company, working with smart people for the most people.

Cons

Huge company, can be hard to navigate, almost impossible to get fired so good workers pick up slack for bad works. They need to trim fat faster and better
