Pros

Great smokescreen for the outside world to think they are a non-profit.

Cons

Their sole purpose is to make money for the leadership team and not to help mankind or the world. Their programs or prizes are not innovative or achievable for people to receive money. They design prizes so the company's executives can keep the money to keep the executives living in the lifestyle they want to be in.

Pros

lots of room for autonomy, working on world's hardest problems, great culture, great people, great benefits.

Cons

always room for improvement in scheduling all hands meetings- (hard with so many people in the company), doing a LOT of things at once (generally good thing, comes with challenges)
