Great pay, great benefits, flexible work schedule.

Very bureaucratic . Too many meetings to get work done during normal business hours. Engineering disciplines work in silos often all with different priorities that may conflict with your own. Hard to get good team work

Pros

- Great learning opportunity - get to work with some of the most knowledgeable, hard working, smart, and well rounded individuals - Learn top of the industry engineering skills and fundamentals - Strong emphasis on data backed decision making

Cons

- Extremely political, differentiation between high performers is typically more about how well you've advertised yourself and what aliances you've made as opposed to your actual contributions - Very resistant to change, everything is essentially already mapped out for you - Too rigid of a work environment with little room for individuality or new ways of approaching old problems
