Pros

Most of your coworkers are great and become like family. You learn a lot up to a certain point. Fantastic benefits.

Cons

It is nearly impossible to innovate. There is definitely a herd mentality, and anyone who strays is frowned upon. All the transparency that used to make the company great is gone. Every communication sounds like it was crafted by legal and PR. All the exciting opportunities are scooped up by managers who should be managing and not working as individual contributors. The pay? Ridiculous.

Pros

It is a good environment for newbies, competitive salaries for new hires, friendly workplace.

Cons

To much politics, there are persons who are more equals than the others, salary raise don't follow the inflation, so your real compensation may decrease over time.
