Pros

Incredible value in learning if you're doing design work. Overtime + ESPP is a great way accrue value if you're hourly.

Cons

You'll have a lot less time for a girlfriend/boyfriend/hobbies. Hourly specialists typically see solid W2 pay with enough overtime but don't see particularly compelling incentive packages or stock awards.

Pros

You will be able to learn more and do more (with direct responsiblity) than nearly any other large company. The mission is inspiring and motivating in a way very few other places can offer.

Cons

Large time commitment for relatively lower pay -- you are effectively paying tuition to learn from smart people. High variability in management, some great some bad.
