Pros

Great infrastructure engineers to be in the trenches with, from senior down. Also most leads and staff engineers.

Cons

Blatant incompetence at the VP level, down into some of the staff and lead engineers. Inexperienced VP leading by threats instead of example, making impossible demands of engineering teams due to ignorance or malice, I don't know which. Nepotism, gossip and badmouthing, constant injects due to a lack of awareness of their own resources. They've fired people and shifted silos 2-3 times per year without any regard for their own processes or workflows. This place wouldn't stay running if it weren't for the skillful dedication of it's individual contributors, at least for IT infrastructure.

Pros

Good paid training Good benefits

Cons

In claims, overtime is required to just stay on top of your work load. They are understaffed for years and the burden falls on you to take care of your coworker's claims and you have to do your claims on your time off. I found I had no work life balance, it was all work.
