Pros

Great projects to work on. There is always an abundance of challenging problems that need to be solved. Depending on the group there is adequate time given to thinking about short/medium term research.

Cons

A lot of bureaucracy has been present recently. Also as a growing company engineers have a lot more challenges integrating with acquisitions.
