Pros

You’ll work with some smart people

Cons

Where do I begin. The culture is dead. Don’t trust all of the reviews you read on here as most of the short 5-star comments are left by employees that are highly encouraged by HR to leave a review. You’ll meet and work with some smart people. but depending on department, you will find yourself working alongside or reporting to some of the most inept people that have managed to fail upwards into their positions. This leads to poor decision making that has to be fixed by higher c-suite powers - if you’re willing to jump the chain of command.
