Pros

Glamorous company, good salaries benefits and lots of perks.

Cons

It is a very bureaucratic, slow, non flexible environment. People are not encouraged to think outside the box. You need to comply with their army-like rules. All managers are micro managers who have been there forever, because of the multiple perks, and will never learn anything new. Brilliant and creative people are chased and thrown out. Vindictive, petty HR policies.

Long working hours. Everyone but techs is looked down at. No long term opportunities. Incomplete junior managers and TLs. Don't care about people. Expected to work overtime for free if workload needs to be managed. Bad company culture. Promotion not based on competence.
