Pros

They really mean the culture stuff. Lots of very smart, motivated people. Predictable but non-wow bonus structure for most employees. Good catered lunches every day. They try to find ways to enable interesting extracurricular activities.

Cons

Long hours more or less every day for everybody. Not much of a maternity leave policy. Very restrictive non-compete agreement. Don't expect a 'Wall Street bonus' to retire on, ever.
