Pros

There is a LOT of very experienced people that you can learn from. The company is very inclusive.

Cons

The company is not developers-oriented. If somebody in HR decides to move all people from one building to another, nobody is even going to ask if you like it or not. Each department is like a separate company, it's hard to do something together for the greater good. People are afraid of taking responsibility.
