Pros

You get to work on something cool (maybe) that will impact the lives of many when it is released (if ever).

Cons

No work/life balance Many re-orgs Constant re-prioritization Get treated like a commodity -> management expects any engineer to be functional anywhere Overwhelming deadlines (no wonder people cry at their desks)
