Pros

They do not give you a lot of responsibility when you first start, so that you learn your niche in the company office. This allows you to grow and learn rather than be completely overwhelmed.

Cons

Although its name is great, the company is too big. It cares more about shareholders than employees. The projects can be monotonous.

Pros

Work can be very interesting, impactful, and everybody is (mostly) very kind and intelligent. They don't hire dumb people.

Cons

Truly insane there is no free food or drinks. Culture feels very stiff and sterile despite not being particularly formal. Hard to get a raise or promoted. If your business has a bad executive, your whole world suffers. Can be extremely relationship based in bad ways.
