Pros

Fast pace, collaboration with other teams, great employee discounts, paid time off during Thanksgiving and between Xmas and New Year (because a lot of holidays are work days here).

Cons

Almost constantly on call, not much of a work time and off time difference, really depends on your assignment, politics and rivalry between teams. Too much secrecy between teams and projects makes work very inefficient.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
