Pros

- tonnes of perks: SWAG, lots of monetary benefits - it's big, so maybe you can shuffle to find a team you like

Cons

- toxic top-down culture: leadership says a lot of pretty words, but they don't actually want your feedback - the toxicity is driven by the CEO - mandatory on-call - weird imbalance between "how good we say we are, and what we say we can do" vs what we can actually get done
