Lots of freedom to work on what you are interested in

The typical cons of a big company, but less-so than other places. But they are over-hiring recently, more incompetent people to deal with

Pros

Deep, intense technology questions that one could hardly get from any interview questions. One really needs field experience to learn it by oneself.

Cons

Covered a wide range of experience, which is beyond most engineers' typical career coverage. Emphasized the tricky language corner scenario, which is important too, but not already remembered by the one who is in the interview. One can check them if needed in a real job.
