Pros

Huge network of very talented technical professionals.

Cons

Every employee is just a number, and you exist only to add value to the company's stock price. Favoritism between middle management and employees within divisions punishes the strong and promotes the weak. A very frustrating, unfulfilling place to work.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
