Pros

Lots of new and improved products. Good energy and nice perks (free food). A feeling that we're working on something important (even though the rest of the world disagrees)

Cons

Too many leaders in senior roles that shouldn't be. Yahoo has all these Directors who are basically just front-line managers (no manager reports). Trying to retain by giving inflated titles is a sign of desperation..

Pros

Everyone is very positive and nice. There's a ton of opportunity to make an impact with the scope and scale each employee is responsible for.

Cons

Product strategy seems frantic and directionless at times, although differs between product teams.
