Pros

Some really truly great people to work with.

Cons

Competition within the same team to handle the same piece of work has created tension. Groups operate in silos far too often and there's a ton of politics to deal with. Lack of concise direction from executive level - they preach one thing, or get on you for not having built something, then turn around and cut resources/funding for that same thing they were claiming was a priority. Be consistent.

Pros

Great people but that may be team dependent.

Cons

Culture is very team dependent. Slow to build things but that's probably to downside to corporate... it all depends on the team that you're on
