Pros

Benefits are great. Work with some of the best in the industry. I feel like I have an internal and external impact. There is an incentive to collaborate with others. I get to pick the problems that I work on.

Cons

It can be a political place. Lots of reorgs and other movement. There are definitely individual feifdoms within the company. Sometimes it is so large that multiple groups are trying to do the same thing which can lead to redundant and wasted work.
