Pros

They have the latest technology. Their products are all cool. Nice brand name. Flexibility is good. Work life and personal life balance is good.

Cons

Your areas of working is restricted. It is tough to wear different hats and work on different areas. The pay and compensation is very very bad and is very unfair.
