Pros

Great product that is helping and changing the world. Great company vision and mission. Staying focus on accomplishing goals with clear directions.

Cons

Management cares about getting projects done much more than how to treat employee well. Long hours work all the time. No work-life balance. Managers are not smart and do not treat people well. Company makes lots of money but does not provide enough compensation to employees.
