Pros

Health insurance, dental, vision benefits were very good. Free coffee and soda. Good cafeteria food.

Cons

Lots of corporate politics, cumbersome and frustrating review process, impossible to change positions if you're struggling in the one you're in. Ended up fixing other people's bugs for two years working on mostly legacy code. Manager was a jerk. The commute also sucked. Quitting was the best decision I ever made.
