Pros

Good work life balance sometimes, Scale of Data, Challenging problems to solve in some teams

Cons

politics.. US teams generally do all the good work. Scale of the data is huge but the infrastructure is horrible. It takes ages to run simple MR jobs. Lack of good platform. No effort to retain good employees. They are interested in hiring new folks with lesser talent. There is no guarantee that you will get your variable component especially at higher levels

Pros

- Adoption of new and emerging technologies in some teams - Flexible timings and work from home

Cons

- Terrible middle management - Terrible work-life balance - Unreasonable demands - Workaholics (only) welcome - No respect for the individual - Favoritism - Politics - Failure to communicate expectations - Biggest thing is forced ranking. Employees are forced into a bell curve. The "worst performing employees" are fired.
