Pros

1) Chance to grow in the company, lot of knowledgeable people, especially is Systems SW. 2) Decent compensation and benefits. 3) Working on cutting edge AI and Machine learning, which will be the future.

Cons

1) Work-life balance might get screwed up a bit during hardware releases, but I think that's the case during the release period for any company. 2) Benefits can be a bit better matched to competitors such as Google, FB etc.
