Pros

People, culture, multiple offices all over the world, benefits

Cons

Heavy on travel - you might need to travel 100% of your time and there's nothing you can do about it, this company runs on travel Pays less than what you could earn, especially if you've been there for a few years. Tells you that there is no limit for what you can do and how you can grow, but actually have some obscure ways of gathering performance feedbacks from managers that have no idea about what you do.

Extreme job insecurity. 3 rounds of layoffs in 1.5 years, pay freezes, seemingly no path for IC growth.
