Pros
World class products and technology. Resources to invest in interesting projects. Many great people. True integrity as an organization.
Cons
You are expected to work like you are in a crisis - all the time. Your manager has too much control over your career and life. Only ~50% of the employees actually add value or generate revenue - the rest spend their time communicating, updating and justifying what they are doing - all at a "Type A" frenetic pace. You are responsible for your own employability (which is OK) but the company really has no idea what skill they will need beyond ~ 6 months. Consequently, they lay off existing employees and then hire the skills that are needed for today. Very wasteful and demoralizing.
