Pros

The type of work tends to be diverse and interesting. Generally a good place to learn some good skills and typically give you a lot of independence in terms of jobs responsibilities within your level

Cons

People are siloed in their functions and there is very little opportunity to move from within unless interacting with a particular team as a result of your current duties. Generally the quality of work standards are low and people get paid less than other places.

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
