Pros

Opportunity to make a difference. Work on technology projects that matter, are professionally interesting, and market relevant. Great lateral and horizontal access to teammates, functions, and decisions across the entire product development process in an agile dev environment. Tech and Dev driven. Start up culture inside a large corporation.

Cons

Multiple aspirational product objectives pose an ongoing risk that resources and organization focus are split too thin -- but that is true for most "tech startups" this size and in this space.

Pros

Lots of lessons and growth in learning how to become more patient, manage stress, and deal with incompetent management, archaic processes, technology, and ideology. There are some good people here that are doing their best to get by while looking for something else. When everything sucks at least there are people to lean on and that will lean back.

Cons

Incompetent management at every level- very much a good ol' boys club. Rampant micromanagement, favoritism, sexism. This place is a mess. Just don't. You will regret it. Archaic process, lagging product, and the really good people usually move out within a few years after they get really proficient (but really tired) of trying to deal with all the garbage.
