Pros

Comp can be good if you joined years ago when equity price was a better entry point.

Cons

Increasingly toxic environment driven by C-Suite, resulting in a lack of professionalism and decorum in everyday work life. Career advancement is based entirely on political favor, not performance. Inter-department politics are at an all-time-high, limiting teams ability to perform meaningful work and drive results. Constant hiring, firing, and rehiring of middle management layer means the vision is constantly changing without clear direction. Reorgs are frequent.

Upper level management does not care about you.
