Pros

salary, teams, benefits, product perks

Cons

Horrible corporate politics, if you are boss's favorite, you are protected no matter what your performance is. If you are a great employee, bringing in new concepts and innovation, if you dont play by the playbook, they throw you out of the organization with most frivolous excuses. One of the worst HR organization I have come across. "local Legal team" is most corrupt ever - very successful in misrepresenting facts and work only to protect the company unethical practices.

Pros

Dependent upon manager, but are flexible w people with children who don't fit typical work schedule.

Cons

No leadership - from top down. Zero opportunity to grow, i.e., development. Rampant nepotism, prefer family members of employees to highly quailfied outsiders. R&D does not do research - it's all about metrics - how many analyses did I do, don't value the work contributions, just look at it as another data point. R&D is essently a service organization for the rest of the company.
