Pros

Reasonably good work life balance

Cons

1. The CEO doesn't walk the talk 2. 2 years in the last 5 without salary increases 3. Low salary increases when they do happen 4. Several acquisitions that don't integrate or make much sense to long term goals 5. General distrust of senior execs 6. Maximum quota for promotions 7. Different benefits based on location, good if you're in USA 8. Very little scope for career advancement 9. Below industry standard for pay scale 10. All hoping for Palo Alto offers 11. Forcing everyone back to the office when the past 3 years proved that working from home was equally productive.
