Pros

Smart, talented, really nice team of people. The best experience I have ever had in terms of enjoying the people I work with. Significant training and personal growth opportunities. Work/life balance is a company focus, but how that works for the individual is highly dependent on one's role within the company.

Cons

Large, heavily matrixed organization that moves quite slowly. Very heavy on clunky processes.
