Pros

Work hours are generally ok for tech job family. Pay is good. When hiring was open, moving internally was quite easy. Culture varies by team, generally ok but don't expect to make friends through work

Cons

Culture became more toxic as the layoffs/cost cutting regime was put in place, you need to gather enough visibility to survive each year. This gets in the way of working as well, as the learning curve has flatten for me and my colleagues in the past year or two.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
