Pros

Successful company with good products. Competent engineering team. Many opportunities for growth/expansion within the company. Competitive pay and benefits. Well rewarded for job well done, when/if recognized

Cons

Large company, slow to effect changes. Lack of accountability from employees. If you want something done, where another team is dropping the ball, you have to do it yourself. You will end up with your plate overflowing while others sit idle. Internal communication could use improvement; too much email communication. Too many meetings, can't reach a consensus without a meeting. A lot of "throwing ownership" over the fence going on, nobody wants to own anything. Everybody wants to go to the party, nobody wants to stay and clean up.

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
