Pros

- Plenty of opportunities for personal growth - Good salary and benefits - Good work-life balance - High-impact work

Cons

- Heavy and slow processes - Is located near Seattle, WA, which a fairly remote place (depending on where you come from). Not necessarily a problem for everybody, but it is for me. - Area is clogged and gentrified (expensive cost of life)
