Pros

1. Campus is nice. 2. Technology is very good. 3. Company is still the market leader. Most of the server growth will be in virtual machines.

Cons

1. The company has had very high growth, but has not invested in the back-end infrastructure. You spend all your time just trying to manually crunch data. As a result, you spend long hours doing manual work. 2. If you get along with your boss, you will do fine. If you don't -- start looking for a new job. There is no place to go in the company other than out. 3. The work is unevenly spread out. Certain teams are just buried, and other teams have lots of free time to play -- ping pong etc.
