Pros

Work is hard, and there's lots of it, so it's not what I'd call a "cushy" job, but if you're not lazy and have what it takes to pass the legendary interviews, you will likely do well. It still feels like the company is run by engineers, even though that's not really the case anymore. And yeah, there's free food (3 times a day), soda, gym membership, and so on and so forth.

Cons

Management quality is clearly below what's required for a company of this size. It's incredibly difficult for someone senior to get up to speed to a degree where they'd feel comfortable.
