Pros

talented co-workers name recognition you can learn lot of cutting edge technology moderately good pay

Cons

only cares about customers, employees are treated like dispensable commodities unfair promotion practice, political; management will invent reasons to not give raise or promotion zero work life balance hard nosed behavior is encouraged in the name of leadership principle pager on-call duties can be really painful sometimes zero respect for engineers, no training, poor documentation, sink or swim environment extreme frugality. you will not find anything that has " calorie" in it if you are hungry. only coffee or tea, the coffee maker runs out of coffee sometimes and they don't bother refilling until next day
