Pros

A lot of perks to make the campus feel like home. Which is important because you'll be spending the majority of your hours awake here to keep up with the level of work and industriousness of your peers.

Cons

Not too much. Sometimes people get burned out but the culture makes it difficult to present anything other than success and happiness.

Pros

Well payed, no micro management, responsibility, meals, reputation.

Cons

Nobody takes responsibility for anything. Difficult to get things done. Quality of code differs strongly with teams. Doing the right thing is not easy when all your features get punted because nobody takes responsibility to get things done.
