Pros

-There are a bunch of really wonderful people working there who I'm still friends with to this day -The amenities and perks are fantastic. Free breakfast/lunch. Great live events and holiday parties -Good pay, workload was pretty light all things considered

Cons

-Content itself is pretty paint by numbers, not very meaningful -Some of the people at the top are very tone deaf/clueless as to what makes good content -A very avoidant work culture. People would rather fire others or get them to quit so they won't have to have a "difficult" conversation with them. Super passive aggressive -Overall since of malaise from working on something that is completely superfluous -No room for you to grow in your job even if you're doing work that is mostly above your job title. The glass ceiling there is bulletproof

Great benefits and quality of life

Easy to get lost in the size of the company. Always a "what if" after large layoffs.
