Pros

The pay at the time was not bad. Salary can be higher than average. There was a good annual bonus and also long term comp or RSUs that you get granted and can cash in at distribution, It may be worse now after the troubles and restructuring that happened.

Cons

Everything on the surface seems good until you see the actual internal culture and just a lot of incompetency at the top with ego, so they are unable to listen and learn from people they hire.
