Pros

The company is huge but is run like a start-up firm. Depending on the function you work in, it is typical to interact with senior leadership regularly. It is also a big name in the industry that can open more doors for you, so it's nice to have on any resume.

Cons

It is a very political place that values politics over performance. It's more challenging for people of color to succeed in prestigious teams. People who leave often say, "You cannot pay me a million dollars to go work in that place."
