Pros

I've made life-long friends at this company. Also, depending on where you are, it is possible to move up through the ranks very quickly, if you can navigate the politics.

Cons

This company used to truly care about employees. Now, they manage entirely by numbers, they promote the loudest versus the most qualified, and upper management has become incredibly short-sighted. One month the company must focus entirely on A, and a few months later everyone must drop everything to focus entirely on B (which happens to be the exact opposite of A).

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
