Pros

Benefits and the people are generally really good. The work is interesting and important. The company REALLY cares about its impact on the world.

Cons

Extremely indecisive. Executives and managers don't have control of their people or the work they do. Significant lack of rigor or goals oriented awards - promotions and advancement are primarily based on who you know. Topmost leaders at the company are at generally well meaning, but don't seem to be committed to a transparent, objective approach to managing priorities and funding. D&I focus is good, but over the top to the point of encouraging constant witch hunts.
