Pros

* Full of really talented, capable, passionate people that will push you to learn and grow * Relatively stable * Lots of interesting challenges due to the sheer scale of the data you handle

Cons

* High manager rotation/attrition, and good managers last very little * Leadership is dishonest and most answers to any problem are along the lines of "Everything will be ok" without any actual follow ups * RTO * Really painful promotion process * Retention policies are pretty sad * Can spend months to get leadership approval to do something that may take you less than that to actually do
