Pros

- Good Pay - Wide variety of Diverse Technologies to work at if you are in Development. - Nice Campus

Cons

- Bad Work Life Balance. - Work Culture is not very great, its not collabarative and more of Individual Contribution based. - SDET role might state "Software Development Engineer" in Test, but its more of just Automation you work at, not great if you want to gain good learning and knowledge of different technologies.

Pros

Great benefits. The salary and benefits are quite competitive. Chance to work with some quite talented engineers. Broad product range provide flexibility to work on different areas based on interest.

Cons

Engineering at some teams (especially older) can become too structured sometimes. There is not much room for innovation, and the rigid requirements can make the work feel boring sometimes. Hard to make significant contributions at the junior levels.
