Pros

Great 401K matching (up to 6%), interesting yet challenging work, and exit opportunities. They will contribute up to $40K if you decide to pursue a masters degrees and they provide tons of other learning resources (programming language demos, data visualization software courses, etc) for you to learn for free. Most teams are very laidback- you can wear casual attire/sneakers to the office, great flexibility on daily working start/end time, and currently implementing a hybrid office schedule.

Cons

The company often adopts new programs/processes to keep things new and improve efficiency, which you will have to adapt to. Like any big company, there can also be some bureaucracy.

Pros

The people. I worked with genuinely talented, hardworking colleagues who showed up for each other and for the work, even when leadership made that hard.

Cons

Leadership at the senior level was chaotic and unclear, and it trickled down into everything. Projects routinely landed with little to no notice, leaving teams scrambling instead of planning. Budgets were micromanaged from the top while strategic direction was not — a strange mix of tight control over spending and almost no clarity on priorities. Communication from senior leadership rarely made it down to the people actually doing the work, so teams were often the last to know about decisions that directly affected them. There was also a clear undercurrent of fear among some senior leaders that discouraged any real innovation or experimentation — better to play it safe than propose something new. If you're someone who thrives on clarity, planning, and a culture that rewards new ideas, this is not that environment.
