Pros

Perks are great, people *want* to do the right thing, but often don't take the time needed or follow through. Benefits like health care are great. 401k is good but not amazing. If you have a high drive to succeed and are results oriented you'll do fine. If you can't deal with ambiguity you're going to drown.

Cons

Management is, in general, very slim and isn't well supported. This can lead to disenfranchised employees that report to those managers. Compensation isn't market competitive unless you're a super star artist or engineer. Any other discipline and you're not in luck.

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
