Pros

* Great benefits - one of the best health, dental, vision insurance, on top of delicious free food, shuttles, and generous salary. * Good pay * Currently, internal mobility is not too difficult, You do have to be in the team that you started on for at least a year before being eligible to change teams, but it's not hard to do so after that

Cons

* Lots of politics and fighting for scope * Culture/WLB has recently gone downhill due to everyone being worried about stack ranking; folks are less willing to help onboard new folks (could be intentional due to stackranking or unintentional (too busy, can't prioritize onboarding)). People frequently work nights/weekends as well.
